Answer 1

Answer:

$6.495\text{ }\times\text{ 10}^1$

Explanation:

Here, we want to write the number in standard form

From the question, we start with 64

Then, we have ninth (this stays in the tenth place which means 9/10 = 0.9)

We also have 5 hundredths

This simply mean we have 5 in the hundredths place which is same as 5/100 = 0.05

The sum of these is:

$64\text{ + 0.9 + 0.05 = 64.95}$

From here, we can proceed to write the number in standard form

We have that as:

$6.495\text{ }\times\text{ 10}^1$
