Work with radicals and integer exponents. Use numbers expressed in the form of a single digit times an integer power of 10 to estimate very large or very small quantities, and to express how many times as much one is than the other. For example, estimate the population of the United States as 3 × 10^8 and the population of the world as 7 × 10^9, and determine that the world population is more than 20 times larger.

A problem where students are required to compare a very small quantity with a very large quantity using the metric system of weight.
The goal of this task is to give students a context to investigate large numbers and measurements. Students need to fluently convert units with very large numbers in order to successfully complete ...
The purpose of this task is for students to develop a feel for large powers of ten, which is a critical component of working fluently with numbers in scientific notation.
In this topic, students’ understanding of integer exponents is expanded to include the concept of magnitude as
a measurement. Students learn to estimate how big or how small a number is using magn...
This lesson introduces students to the idea of large exponents making a number very large and small numbers making them very small.
In this lesson, compare and estimate quantities in the form of a single digit times a power of 10. Also, they will learn to simplify expression.
Through a range of real-life problems, students will write, add and subtract numbers in scientific notation and understand what is meant by the term leading digit.
A number of interesting real life problems to practice operations with numbers expressed in scientific notation and standard notation.
This lesson focuses on students practicing operations on very small and very large numbers in scientific notation.
This lesson focuses on choosing appropriate units. It is important for students to see the simple example (i.e.,
dining table measurements) as well as more sophisticated examples from physics and ...
In this lesson, students will learn to compare large numbers in scientific notation and learn to interpret data to compute such numbers.
