When working with very large or very small numbers, scientists, mathematicians, and engineers often use scientific notation to express those quantities. Scientific notation uses exponential notation. When a number is written in scientific notation, the exponent tells you if the term is a large or a small number. A positive exponent indicates a large number and a negative exponent indicates a small number that is between 0 and 1.

If the exponent of 10 is a larger positive integer then the number is very large and if the exponent of 10 is a larger negative integer then the number is very small.

We need to determine using scientific notation, how can you tell if the number is very large or very small.

What is scientific notation?

Scientific notation is a way of writing very large or very small numbers. A number is written in scientific notation when a number between 1 and 10 is multiplied by a power of 10.

For example, 650,000,000 can be written in scientific notation as [tex]6.5 \times 10^{8}[/tex].

Here, [tex]6.5 \times 10^{8}[/tex] is a very large number.

For example, 0.0000000000000082 can be written in scientific notation as [tex]8.2\times 10^{-15}[/tex]

Here, [tex]8.2\times 10^{-15}[/tex] is a very small number.

Therefore, if the exponent of 10 is a larger positive integer then the number is very large and if the exponent of 10 is a larger negative integer then the number is very small.
