Kendra finds the dimensions of a sticky note. She uses a meter stick to determine that the dimensions are 1.25 * 10 ^ - 8
meters wide by 2.5 * 10 ^ 0 meters long. Use scientific notation to write the dimensions in millimeters.
To convert the dimensions from meters to millimeters, we need to multiply by 1000 since there are 1000 millimeters in a meter.
The width of the sticky note is 1.25 * 10^-8 meters.
Converting this to millimeters, we get:
(1.25 * 10^-8) * 1000 = 1.25 * 10^-8 * 10^3 = 1.25 * 10^-8+3 = 1.25 * 10^-5
So, the width of the sticky note in millimeters is 1.25 * 10^-5 mm.
The length of the sticky note is 2.5 * 10^0 meters.
Converting this to millimeters, we get:
(2.5 * 10^0) * 1000 = 2.5 * 10^0 * 10^3 = 2.5 * 10^0+3 = 2.5 * 10^3
So, the length of the sticky note in millimeters is 2.5 * 10^3 mm.
To convert the dimensions from meters to millimeters, we need to multiply by a conversion factor of 1000 since there are 1000 millimeters in a meter.
First, let's convert the width:
1.25 * 10 ^ -8 meters * 1000 = 1.25 * 10 ^ -8 * 10 ^ 3 = 1.25 * 10 ^ (-8 + 3) = 1.25 * 10 ^ -5 millimeters
Now let's convert the length:
2.5 * 10 ^ 0 meters * 1000 = 2.5 * 10 ^ 0 * 10 ^ 3 = 2.5 * 10 ^ (0 + 3) = 2.5 * 10 ^ 3 millimeters
Therefore, the dimensions of the sticky note in millimeters are 1.25 * 10 ^ -5 millimeters wide and 2.5 * 10 ^ 3 millimeters long.
To write the dimensions in millimeters, we need to convert the measurements from meters to millimeters.
1 meter = 1000 millimeters
First, let's convert the width from meters to millimeters:
Width: 1.25 * 10^-8 meters
To convert meters to millimeters, multiply by 1000:
1.25 * 10^-8 meters * 1000 = 1.25 * 10^-8 * 10^3 = 1.25 * 10^-8+3 = 1.25 * 10^-5 millimeters
So, the width of the sticky note is 1.25 * 10^-5 millimeters in scientific notation.
Next, let's convert the length from meters to millimeters:
Length: 2.5 * 10^0 meters
To convert meters to millimeters, multiply by 1000:
2.5 * 10^0 meters * 1000 = 2.5 * 10^0 * 10^3 = 2.5 * 10^0+3 = 2.5 * 10^3 millimeters
So, the length of the sticky note is 2.5 * 10^3 millimeters in scientific notation.
Therefore, the dimensions of the sticky note in millimeters are:
Width: 1.25 * 10^-5 millimeters
Length: 2.5 * 10^3 millimeters
