Operations with Scientific Notation

Question 1 • FL-1205070-M/J Grade 8 Pre-Algebra (Summer 2026)

Which numbers are written in scientific notation? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
–10.8 × 104
B
2.7 × 10–3
C
6.1 × 105
D
9.582 × 106
E
21.5 × 10–11

Explanation

Scientific notation has the form a × 10ⁿ, where the absolute value of a is at least 1 and less than 10. The coefficients 2.7, 6.1, and 9.582 meet that rule, so choices B, C, and D are in scientific notation. The coefficients 10.8 and 21.5 are too large, so A and E are not.
