Answer:

120,000

Explanation:

1.2 x 10^5 in standard form is 120,000.

To convert a number from scientific notation (with a power of 10) to standard form, you simply move the decimal point to the right or left depending on the sign of the exponent.

In this case, the exponent is positive, so we move the decimal point to the right by 5 places, filling in any empty spaces with zeros. This gives us the final answer of 120,000 in standard form.
