#4.45xx10^14#

Move the decimal to the left #14# places so that only one non-zero digit is in front of the decimal. Then multiply by the base #10# raised to a power that is equal to but opposite the #14# places the decimal was moved.

#4.45xx10^14#

The decimal was moved to the left (negative) #14# places, so the exponent is positive #14#. To get the number back to the original number, you would move the decimal to the right (positive) #14# places.
