Robert and Dora need to write 4,300,000,000 using scientific notation. Robert claims that 4,300,000,000 = 4.3 x 10⁸ and Dora claims that 4,300,000,000 = 4.3 x 10⁹. Whose number is correct and why?

• Robert’s number is correct because when converting 4,300,000,000, the decimal would be located between the 4 and the 3, and the original decimal point in the standard form moves to the left 8 places.

• Robert’s number is correct because when converting 4,300,000,000, the decimal would be located between the 4 and the 3, and the power of 10 is determined by the number of zeros.

• Dora’s number is correct because when converting 4,300,000,000, the decimal would be located between the 4 and the 3, and the original decimal point in the standard form moves to the left 9 places.

• Dora’s number is correct because when converting 4,300,000,000, the decimal would be located between the 4 and the 3, and the power of 10 is always the number of zeros plus 1.
