It is a given that the decimal is at the end of the number
3,120,000,000.
To write in scientific notation --move the decimal x spaces to the left-the power number will be positive because the number is to the right of the zero meaning it is larger than zero
3,120,000,000.
You will move the decimal 9 spaces= X 10^9
3.12 X 10^9
