Answer:
[tex]{ \tt{7.1 \times {10}^{ - 3} }} \\ { \bf{negative \: means \: { \green{increase \: in \: decimal \: places}}}} \\ = { \tt{0.71 \times {10}^{ - 2} }} \\ = { \tt{0.071 \times {10}^{ - 1} }} \\ = { \tt{0.0071 \times {10}^{0} }} \\ { \boxed{ but \: {10}^{0} = 1}} \\ \therefore{ \tt{ = 0.0071 \times 1 = 0.0071}}[/tex]
