Question

How do you convert `3.4 xx 10^7` into expanded notation?

Answer 1

`34,000,000`

Explanation:

Move the decimal 7 places to the right to get `34,000,000`.

This can also be thought of as `3.4\times 10^{7}=3.4\times 10,000,000=34,000,000`

Alternatively, `3.4\times 10^{7}=34\times 10^{6}=34\times 1,000,000=34,000,000`, which can be read as "thirty-four million".
