We can simplify the given expression first and then write it in standard form.

8 × 10 = 80

1 × 1/10 = 1/10

6 × 1/1000 = 6/1000 = 3/500

Adding these three values, we get:

80 + 1/10 + 3/500

To write this in standard form, we need to express it as a single number multiplied by a power of 10. We can do this by finding a common denominator for the fractions and adding them:

80 + 50/500 + 3/500 = 80 + 53/500

Now, we can write this as:

80.106

To express this in standard form, we move the decimal point to the left until there is only one non-zero digit to the left of the decimal point. We moved the decimal point 3 places to the left to get:

8.0106 × 10^1

Therefore, the number in standard form is 8.0106 × 10^1.
