9 What about Square and Cubic units? – Use the conversion factors you already know, but when you square or cube the unit, don’t forget to cube the number also!Use the conversion factors you already know, but when you square or cube the unit, don’t forget to cube the number also! Best way: Square or cube the ENTIRE conversion factorBest way: Square or cube the ENTIRE conversion factor Example: Convert 4.3 cm 3 to mm 3Example: Convert 4.3 cm 3 to mm 3 4.3 cm 3 10 mm 3 1 cm 1 cm ( ) = 4.3 cm 3 10 3 mm 3 1 3 cm 3 1 3 cm 3 = 4300 mm 3

20 What is Scientific Notation? Scientific notation is a way of expressing really big numbers or really small numbers.Scientific notation is a way of expressing really big numbers or really small numbers. It is most often used in “scientific” calculations where the analysis must be very precise.It is most often used in “scientific” calculations where the analysis must be very precise. For very large and very small numbers, scientific notation is more concise.For very large and very small numbers, scientific notation is more concise.

21 Scientific notation consists of two parts: A number between 1 and 10A number between 1 and 10 A power of 10A power of 10 N x 10 x

22 To change standard form to scientific notation… Place the decimal point so that there is one non-zero digit to the left of the decimal point.Place the decimal point so that there is one non-zero digit to the left of the decimal point. Count the number of decimal places the decimal point has “moved” from the original number. This will be the exponent on the 10.Count the number of decimal places the decimal point has “moved” from the original number. This will be the exponent on the 10. If the original number was less than 1, then the exponent is negative. If the original number was greater than 1, then the exponent is positive.If the original number was less than 1, then the exponent is negative. If the original number was greater than 1, then the exponent is positive.
