You asked:

Express \(75000\) in scientific notation.

MathBot Answer:

Scientific notation is a way of representing a number in the form $a \times 10^{b}$ where $1 \le |a| \lt 10$ and $b$ is an integer. $a$ should not include any leading or trailing zeroes.

The value of $b$ can be found by determining the power of ten that the number can be divided by to bring its value into the specified range.

\(75000 = 7.5 \times 10000 = 7.5 \times 10^{4}\)
