Answer:

1.05 * 10⁰

Explanation:

Standard form is a way of representing either very large or very small numbers easily.

If a number is to be written in standard form, you have to first write down the number between 1 and 10, then you write × 10(to the power of a number).

Given that the amount of rain that fell near Marie's house is one and five hundredths inches of rain.

Amount of rain = one and five hundredths inches of rain = 1 + 5/100 = 1 + 0.05 = 1.05

Amount of rain in standard form = 1.05 * 10⁰
