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^-6 meters long. Use scientific notation to write the dimensions in millimeters. 1 meter is equal to 1000 millimeters.
To convert the width of the sticky note from meters to millimeters, we multiply by 1000:
1.25 * 10^-8 meters * 1000 = 1.25 * 10^(-8+3) millimeters = 1.25 * 10^-5 millimeters.
Similarly, to convert the length of the sticky note from meters to millimeters, we multiply by 1000:
2.5 * 10^-6 meters * 1000 = 2.5 * 10^(-6+3) millimeters = 2.5 * 10^-3 millimeters.
So, the dimensions of the sticky note in millimeters are 1.25 * 10^-5 millimeters wide by 2.5 * 10^-3 millimeters long.
