Study this problem on equivalent power of 10, then continue.
.000001 = _________
Rule:
To express a decimal as a
whole number times the power
of 10, move the decimal point
to the RIGHT, count the
number of places to the
original point, and use this
count as a NEGATIVE exponent
(or power) of 10.
Solution:
Move the decimal point 6
places to the RIGHT; the
exponent is a NEGATIVE 6.
Thus:
.000001 = 1 X 10-6 = 10-6
