Express this number in standard form:1.304 * {10}^(7)

Question

Express this number in standard form:
`1.304 * {10}^(7)`

Answer 1

To write this in standard form, we need to look at the power of 10. In this case, it's a 7. Then, we need to shift the decimal point 7 places to the right:

`1.304\cdot10^7=13,040,000`

We can see that behind the 1 (where was the decimal point before) now there are 7 numbers, then what we do is correct.
