Student Flip Chart Notes

Here are the steps to solve these problems: 1) The seating capacity of Sanford Stadium is 92,750 To write this in scientific notation: 92,750 = 9.275 x 10^4 2) The seating capacity of Williams-Brice Stadium is 8.025 x 10^4 To write this in standard notation: 8.025 x 10^4 = 80,250 So the answers are: 1) 9.275 x 10^4 2) 80,250

Name:___________________________________________

Part 1

I will be able to

1. Write numbers into scientific notation.

2. Write numbers from scientific notation into standard notation.

Part 2

1. Create a Scientific Notation Glogster

Period 7

Scientific Notation:
Text Message:
Scientific Notation – a method of writing very __________and very ____________ numbers
using powers of 10.

Why???? Because Mathematicians are ______________

Take for example, an ordinary penny contains about 20,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 atoms.

The average size of an atom is about 0.00000003 centimeters across.

Numbers such as 12,000 and 545 are written in __________ ________

*A number written in __________ ___________ has two numbers that are multiplied.
The exponent indicates
how many places the
decimal point was moved

4.123 x 10 4

The first part is a


The second part is a power of 10.
number that is greater

than 1 and less than 10

When using Scientific Notation, there are two kinds of exponents:

1. ______________ Exponent: 2.35 x 108


2.
______________ Exponent: 3.97 x 10-7

With a POSITIVE exponent, move the decimal to the __________:

1.08 x 103 = __________


Don’t forget to fill in your zeroes!

•If an exponent is POSITIVE, the number gets


larger, so move the decimal to the RIGHT.

With a NEGATIVE exponent, move the decimal to the __________:

4.08 x 10-3 =__________


Don’t forget to fill in your zeroes!

•If an exponent is NEGATIVE, the number gets


smaller, so move the decimal to the LEFT.

Examples: The sign of the exponent tells you what direction to move the decimal.
1.) Number of atoms in a penny;
2.0 x 1022
A positive exponent means move the decimal to the ______________.

2.) Size of each atom:

3.0 x 10-8
A negative exponent means move the decimal to the ________.

1) 9.678 x 104

2) 7.4521 x 10-3
3) 8.513904567 x 107

4) 4.09748 x 10-5
YOU DO!

2.78 x 108 _________________________

9.34 x 10-2 _________________________

1.6 x 10-3 _________________________

2.78 x 106 _________________________

7.32 x 105 _________________________

7.3 x 10-5 _________________________

9.34 x 102 _________________________


Changing from Standard Notation to
Use this Scientific Notation:
Number

3258
1) First, move the decimal after the first whole number

2) Second, add your multiplication sign and your base (10).

3) Count how many spaces the decimal moved and this is the exponent.

4) See if the original number is greater than or less than one.

–If the number is greater than one, the exponent will be positive.
3.48943 x 105 = 348943
Helpful Hint

-If the number is less than one, the exponent will be negative.
6.72 x 10 -8
= .0000000672
I do/we do: Changing from Standard Notation to Scientific Notation:

1) 9872432 _________________________

2) .0000345 _________________________

3) .08376 _________________________

4) 5673 _________________________

YOU DO! Changing from Standard Notation to Scientific Notation:

1.) 140,000 4.) 560

2.) 0.0324 5.) 0.00029

3.) 0.000021
1.) Georgia's Sanford Stadium is the fifth-largest on-campus stadium in the
NCAA. Games played there are said to be played "between the hedges"
due to the pivet hedges which have stood around the field since 1929.

The seating capacity of Sanford Stadium is 92,750.

Express this number in scientific notation.

2.) Williams-Brice Stadium is the home field of the University of


South Carolina. Each time South Carolina enters the field to
the sounds of 2001: A Space Odyssey, the stadium goes wild.

The seating capacity of Williams-Brice Stadium is 8.025 x 10 4.

Write this number in STANDARD NOTATION
