How It Works

Here is our Convert to Scientific Notation Calculator which will help you to convert any integer or decimal (positive or negative) into scientific notation (or standard form in the UK).

  • The number will also be converted to E-Notation, standing for Exponent Notation, which is a notation that computers and some calculators use for numbers.
  • E-Notation is very similar to scientific notation, but uses an E or e and then shows the exponent.

The converter shows the Order of Magnitude, which is the exponent (or power of 10 needed) to represent the number in scientific notation.

The converter will also show you the steps needed to help you understand how the conversion takes place.
