Question

Write 5600 in standard form

Answer 1

5.6 times 10^3

Explanation:

You go back 3 times to get to the 1st digit

Answer 2

5.6 x 10^3 (10 to the power of 3)

i.e. 5600 = 5.6 x 10^3 because you have to go back 3 times to get 5.6 *you cannot have a number less than 1 or more than 10*

So the power of 3 is the amount of times you had to move back
