The standard form is 89870

Solution:

We have to write the given scientific notation in standard form

Standard form is a form which is preferred most common

Convert given into standard form:

From given,


8.987 * 10^4

Multiply 10 power 4 with 8.987 to get the standard form of given scientific notation

We know that,


a^2 = a * a

Similarly, expand 10 power 4


8.987 * 10^4 = 8.987 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10\\\\8.987 * 10^4 = 8.987 * 10000\\\\Muliply\ to\ get\ standard\ form\\\\8.987 * 10^4 = 89870

Thus the standard form of number is obtained
