FINAL ANSWER:
7.24 10^-2
Step-by-step explanation:
To write 0.0724 into standard form, follow these steps:
Move the decimal 2 times to right in the number so that the resulting number, m = 7.24, is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10
Since we moved the decimal to the right the exponent n is negative
n = -2
Write in the scientific notation form, m × 10n
= 7.24 × 10-2
