A restaurant claims to have served 352,000,000 hamburgers. What is this number in scientific notation?

3.52 * 10⁸

Step-by-step explanation:

Scientific notation is written in: Number that is in the ones place * 10^power.

Here, the number is 3.52, since 3 has the largest placement.

The power on the 10 should be the number of 0's on 352,000,000/3.52. That is 100,000,000. That number has 8 0's, so the power is to the 8th.

Putting that together, this number in scientific notation in 3.52 * 10⁸.
