Answer:

12

Explanation:

the "normal form" to write numbers : just the digits and a decimal point when needed.

so, 1.2 × 10 = 12

12 is the normal, standard decimal notation.

in some cases it can be also 12.0 or 12.00 (especially with money).

the other form is the scientific notation, where a number is written with its leading digits and the power of 10 as the total value "weight". like in this example 1.2 × 10¹
