Answer:

Hence, 0.0000087 can be expressed as [tex]$8.71 \times 10^{-6}$[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

- Given 0.00000871

- Move the decimal point so that the factor is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10 .

- Then count n and write no. as product with a power of 10 .

Step 1 of 1

Consider 0.00000871,

8.71

Decimal has moved 6 places to right.

The power will be negative as the original no. is less than 1 .

[tex]$\begin{array}{r}8.71 \times 10^{-6} \\0.0000087=8.71 \times 10^{-6}\end{array}$[/tex]
