Write in Scientific Notation: Standard Form to Scientific Notation

Writing a number is all in the notation. The resource introduces the class to scientific notation. Pupils learn the process of taking a very large or small number in standard form and write it in scientific notation. To practice,...

Scientific notation is defined and used to express the number 0.0000000003457. This concept is not as clearly defined as it could be, and is probably not suitable for those who have not had prior experience with the concept.

Sal uses a TI-85 graphing calculator to demonstrate how to check his work while he solves a complex word problem where he must use scientific notation to express his answer. This would be a very useful video for an SAT prep or cumulative...

Explaining scientific notation is useful because "it allows us to write large or small numbers in ways that are easy for our brains to write down and understand." Sal proceeds to solve a few practice problems involving scientific...

This video contains additional scientific notation examples, continuing from the previous presentation. Viewers can see Sal work through several more problems using the techniques he has outlined throughout the pre-algebra video series.

Apply the concept of scientific notation to a word problem involving the rate of speed. Sal explains how to express the answer using scientific notation.

Scientists use very large and very small numbers when measuring things. A Veritasium video explains how scientific notation simplifies these numbers. It offers examples of how to convert such numbers into scientific notation—and from...

The instructor demonstrates how to convert a number written in scientific notation to a decimal number. An example is given for a number with a positive exponent, and an example is given for a number with a negative exponent.

Numbers with lots of zeros, lots and lots of zeros. Decimal points to the left and decimal points to the right. Now multiply these numbers. Daunting. There's a shorter way to do it, use scientific notation. The teacher demonstrates just...

Students learn about scientific notation conversions. The video lesson discusses how to convert scientific notation to standard form.
