[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

Scientific notation is a way of expressing very large or very small numbers in a more concise and standardized format by writing them as a number multiplied by a power of 10. It consists of a coefficient (a number between 1 and 10) multiplied by 10 raised to a certain power, which represents the number of places the decimal point must be moved to obtain the original number. This notation is commonly used in scientific and mathematical calculations to simplify writing and reading extremely large or small numbers.
