Solution

Scientific notation:

  1. Scientific notation is used to represent extremely large or extremely small numbers by multiplying a single-digit integer by 10 raised to the power of the exponent.
  2. If the number is very large, the exponent is positive; if the number is very small, the exponent is negative.
  3. Given number is 700
  4. It can also be written as 700.0
  5. Move the decimal point to the left of 700.0 up to 2 places.
  6. To make the number 7.0, the decimal is shifted two positions to the left.
  7. We use a positive exponent here since the values are greater than 10 and the decimal is moved to the left.

700=7×102

Hence, the scientific notation for 700 is 7 x 102.
