Question

Seven hundred and four thousand in standard form?

Answer 1

7.04 × 10⁵

Explanation:

Standard form (also called "Scientific notation ") is written in the form of

`a * 10^n` , where
`1\leq a < 10` and
`n` is any positive or negative whole number.

To convert a number into standard form, move the decimal point to the left or right until there is one digit to the left of the decimal point.

The number of times you have moved the decimal point is the power of 10 (the value of n).

• If the decimal point has moved to the left, the power is positive.
• If the decimal point has moved to the right, the power is negative.

Seven hundred and four thousand = 704000

To convert 704000 to standard form, move the decimal point 5 places to the left so that the value of "a" is 7.04. As the decimal point has been moved 5 places the left, we need to multiply 7.04 by 10⁵.

Therefore, 704000 = 7.04 × 10⁵.

Answer 2

7.04 × 10⁵

Explanation:

We have to convert,

→ Seven hundred and four thousand into standard form.

Now the standard form is,

→ 704000

→ 7.04 × 10⁵

Hence, the answer is 7.04 × 10⁵.
