Quizplus · Accepted Answer

0.0001776 can be expressed as 1.776 × 10^-4. To express it in scientific notation, we need to move the decimal point four places to the right, resulting in 1.776. The exponent in scientific notation represents the number of places the decimal point was moved, but since we moved it to the right, the exponent needs to be negative. Therefore, the final answer is 1.776 × 10^-4, which is equivalent to choice B: 1.776 × 10^-4.
