Answer 1

five times ten minus three

Answer 2

`5 * 10^(3)`.

Explanation:

Given : 0.005

To find : How do you write 0.005 in standard form.

Solution : We have given 0.005

For standard form:

Step 1 : If a number has n digit we move decimal point ( n-1) place to left and to balance , multiply by
`10^(n-1)`.

We can see we have 4 digit in 0.005.

We can write 0.005 as
`(5)/(1000)`

Then
`5 * 10^(3)`.

Therefore,
`5 * 10^(3)`.
