Jordan was asked to convert 345,000,000 to scientific notation. His response was 34.5 x 10^7. His teacher told him he was incorrect. Explain Jordan’s mistake and determine the correct answer

345,000,000 =3.45 x 10^8

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert a number to scientific notation, place or move the decimal point of a number until the coefficient of the number is greater than 1 and less than 10. This is Jordan mistake, 34.5 is greater than 10. Which is incorrect!

explanation:

you have 345,000,000

Keep moving the dot till you have 3.45

Then count how many spaces you've moved

To get to 3.45, it took you 8 moves so you would have 3.45*10^8 as your answer
