The rule of scientifinc notation is that we can use number between 0 and 10, so here we can use 2.8. Lets do this 280 000 000 = 2.8 * 100 * 1 000 000 Now we can just multiply 2.8 by 10 to the power of number of 0 reapeted So 2.8 ∗ 1 0 8 - its the result
280 million can be expressed in scientific notation as 2.8 × 1 0 8 . This is done by moving the decimal point in 280,000,000 to create a number between 1 and 10 and counting the places moved. Therefore, the scientific notation format captures the value efficiently.
