Move over x (exponent in this case) amount of decimal places. The easiest way to convert to standard notation for this problem is to move x amount of decimal places until the first number becomes a whole number, then add x amount of zeros left.

eg.
3.00 x 10^8
=300 x 10^6 <-took us two decimal places to make 3.00 a whole number
=300000000
