Full solution

Q. Write the number 3.2×105 3.2 \times 10^{-5} in standard form.\newlineAnswer:
  1. Understand standard form: Understand what standard form means.\newlineStandard form refers to writing the number without using exponents, which means moving the decimal point to the right or left depending on the exponent of 1010.
  2. Move decimal point left: Move the decimal point to the left because the exponent is negative.\newlineSince the exponent is 5-5, we move the decimal point 55 places to the left.\newline3.20.320.0320.00320.000320.0000323.2 \rightarrow 0.32 \rightarrow 0.032 \rightarrow 0.0032 \rightarrow 0.00032 \rightarrow 0.000032
  3. Write in standard form: Write the number in standard form.\newlineAfter moving the decimal point 55 places to the left, the number in standard form is 0.0000320.000032.
