Learn
Standard Form is used a lot in maths and
science as a convenient way of writing very
large, or very small numbers
for example:
The distance from the earth to the sun is
149 000 000 km
huge!
A hydrogen atom has a diameter of about
0.000 000 2 mm
microscopic!
Learn
Let’s deal with large numbers first.
Look at how these numbers have been broken dow
500
= 5 × 100
= 5 × 102
5000 = 5 × 1 000
= 5 × 103
50 000 = 5 × 10 000
= 5 × 104
you know how to write
these as powers of 10
Learn
What about these?
= 5.5 × 102
550
= 5.5 × 100
5 500
= 5.5 × 1 000 = 5.5 × 103

Put these numbers into standard form:
6 000
400
80 000
9 000
=6×
103
4 000 = 4 × 103
= 4×
102
450
= 8×
104
= 9 × 103
4 00 000 = 4 ×
105
= 4.5 × 102
= 5.5 × 104
55000
3500 = 3.5 × 103
750 000= 7.5 × 105
Learn
Standard form is:
a number
between 1
and 10
×
a power
of ten
Apply
Now try writing these numbers in standard form
5 000 000
= 5 × 106
5 500 000
= 5.5 × 106
5 250 000
= 5.25 × 106
5 100 000
= 5.1 × 106
5 156 342
= 5.156342 × 106
Learn
Reverse!
Change each of these numbers
to an ordinary number

The next stage is to write very
small numbers, i.e. numbers less than 1
Check that you understand about
negative powers of 10
