Write the number five million four thousand three hundred in standard form.
Question
Answer:
Written numerically, the number you stated is written as:
5,004,300
Standard Form (Scientific Notation) numbers are written as a decimal (n.m) such that there is [normally] only one digit (n) to the left of the decimal point, and the rest of the number (m) to the right (with a possible limit). If there is only a single digit in the whole number then the value on the right is a zero (n.0).
To show that the value shown has shifted its decimal point position, the number of decimal positions shifted is shown after the number as a 10βs multiplied to the power of the number of positions shifted.
e.g., 102 = 102.0 = 1.02 (decimal point shifted left two places. If smallest digit is 0 then ignore it UNLESS itβs the ONLY digit!!)
1.02*10^2(2 Decimal shift to the left)
1.02*10^2
So, for the number asked in the question:
5,004,300 = 5,004,300.0
Left shift 6 times to largest digit = 5.004300
5.004300 (show the shift multiplier: 10^6)
5.004300*10^6
