Question

E-Notation for Scientific Notation Very large and very small numbers are easier to write in scientific notation. For example, the number 69200 would be written $6.92 \times 10^4$ in scientific notation. However, WebAssign, like many calculators and programming languages, requires e-notation for entering scientific notation, 1.23e-4 or 1.23E-4, for example. How would you enter this number, 69200, in WebAssign using the e-notation and to 3 significant figures?

Very large and very small numbers are easier to write in scientific notation. For example, the number 0.000000728 would be written as 7.28 × 10^-7 in scientific notation. How would you enter this number in WebAssign using scientific notation to 3 significant figures? (WebAssign uses e-notation for entering scientific numbers, for example, 1.23e-4.)
