One type of insect is 0.0052 meter long. what is this length in scientific notation?

Ok so...

You want to move the decimal point to the right until the number is greater than 1 but less than 10.

The number will end up being 5.2

You moved the decimal point 3 times to the right.
So it will be 5.2 x 10^-3. It is negative because you moved it to the right. The exponent would be positive if you moved it to the left

Step-by-step explanation:

9% =0.09 =9/100

9/100 cannot be simplified so that's your answer.
