What does it mean e 10?
E10 means move the decimal to the right 10 places. If the number 1-9 is a whole number, then the decimal may not be seen, but for the purposes of moving the decimal, there is an invisible decimal after each whole number.
If it is scientific notation, the easiest way to think of it is the ‘E’ stands for ‘times 10 raised to the … power’, so this would be 1 times 10 raised to the 10th power (or 1 followed by 10 zeros) Thus 1E10 is 10,000,000,000.
