Question

 In scientific notation, if the exponent on the 10 is -6, then the number is in the millionths.

Answer 1

2.0 x 10^0 = 2.0

2.0 x 10^-1 = 0.2

2.0 x 10^-2 = 0.02 = 2 hundredths

2.0 x 10^-3 = 0.002 = 2 thousandths

2.0 x 10^-4 = 0.0002 = 2 ten thousandths

2.0 x 10^-5 = 0.00002 = 2 hundred thousandths

2.0 x 10^-6 = 0.000005 = 2 millionths

there are 6 zeros in 1 milllion = 1,000,000
