Chapter 1.8, Problem 1.10P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

To scientific notation should be converted given the statement of values.

Concept Introduction:

Significant figures: The term significant figures refer to the number of important single digits in the co-efficient of an expression in scientific notation (for example 0 to 9 inclusive). The number of significant figures in an expression indicates the confidence or precision with which a scientist or engineer states a quantity.

Scientific notation: This method to expressing numbers in terms of a decimal number between 1 and 10 multiplexed by a power of 10 it is called scientific notation. For example 150, 000, 000 as 1.5×108 indicates the two significant figures, whereas writing it as 1.500×108 indicates four significant figures.

(b)
