Question

Explanation:

In scientific notation, a number is written as $a\times10^{n}$, where $1\leqslant|a|\lt10$ and $n$ is an integer. When the exponent $n$ is positive, we move the decimal point $n$ places to the right. This results in a number greater than 1. For example, $2\times10^{3}=2000$.

Answer:

The number is greater than 1
