Q. Write the number 2.2×10−5 in standard form.Answer:
Understand Standard Form: Understand what standard form means.Standard form refers to a way of writing numbers that are too large or too small to be conveniently written in decimal form. In standard form, a number is written as a number between 1 and 10 multiplied by a power of 10.
Identify Scientific Notation Components: Identify the components of the scientific notation.In 2.2×10−5, the number 2.2 is the coefficient that is between 1 and 10, and 10−5 is the power of 10 that indicates the decimal place the coefficient needs to be moved to convert to standard form.
Convert to Standard Form: Convert the scientific notation to standard form.To write 2.2×10−5 in standard form, we need to move the decimal point in the coefficient 2.2 five places to the left, because the exponent on 10 is −5.2.2→0.22→0.022→0.0022→0.00022→0.000022
Write Final Answer: Write the final answer in standard form.The number 2.2×10−5 written in standard form is 0.000022.
