    Here is a thorough 3-step process for comparing numbers in scientific notation: 1. Identify the exponent: Look at the exponents of each number and identify which one has the larger exponent value. In this case, the DJ's number (2.05x10^3) has the larger exponent of 3 compared to the bartender's exponent of 2. 2. Compare coefficients: Since the DJ's number has the larger exponent, it will be the larger number overall. Now compare the coefficients in front of each exponential term. The DJ's coefficient is 2.05 and the bartender's is 3.21. 3. Calculate the difference: To determine how much less the DJ makes, subtract the bartender's coefficient from the

    ~TO COMPARE NUMBERS WRITTEN IN SCIENTIFIC NOTATION FIRST IDENTIFY WHICH HAS THE LARGER EXPONENT.

    ~IF THE EXPONENTS ARE THE SAME, IDENTIFY WHICH HAS THE LARGER WHOLE NUMBER.

    ~WHEN TRYING TO IDENTIFY HOW MANY TIME A NUMBER IN SCIENTIFIC NOTATION IS LARGER/LESS THAN THE OTHER:

    1. CONVERT BOTH NUMBERS TO STANDARD FORM AND DIVIDE THE SMALLER NUMBER INTO THE LARGER NUMBER.

    OR

    2. CONVERT BOTH NUMBERS TO SCIENTIFIC NOTATION IF THEY AREN’T ALREADY IN SCIENTIFIC NOTATION AND DIVIDE.

    In the text box below, explain thoroughly any
    issues that you may be experiencing with
    comparing scientific notation.

    If you are not experiencing any issues give a


    thorough synopsis of how to work a problem that
    ask you to compare scientific notation. (Hint:
    EXIT SLIP Create an example and include commentary)

    Ex: A DJ makes 2.05x10^3 a week. A bartender makes 3.21x10^2 a


    week. How much less does a DJ make than a bartender in a week.
    10 min. S1:You set up the problem putting the number with the bigger
    exponent on top and the lesser on the bottom
    S2: You divide the coefficient and round if needed.
    S3:Then you divide he exponents. You keep the base and subtract the
    exponents.
    S4:Finally, you solve the problem to change the scientific notation to
    its standard notation.
    You answer will be A dj makes 6.4 less than a bartender does.
