To write a number in scientific notation, we express it as a product of a decimal number between 1 and 10 and a power of 10.

In your case, you want to express the number 324 in scientific notation.

To start, we need to move the decimal point so that we have a number between 1 and 10.

By moving the decimal point two places to the left, we get 3.24.

Next, we need to determine the power of 10 that we need to multiply this number by to get back to the original number (324).

Since we moved the decimal point two places to the left, we need to multiply by 10 raised to that power, which is 10^2.

Therefore, the correct scientific notation for 324 is 3.24 x 10^2.

So, yes, your answer of 3.24 x 10^2 is correct.
