Question

write 2.3 x 10 to the power of 3 in decimal form

Answer 1

To express

$2.3\times10^3$

The standard form is represented by

$A\times10^n$

where

$A\text{ is a number in the range 1}\leq A<10$

and

$n=\text{the power of 10}$

In our case

$\begin{gathered} \text{For } \\ 2.3\times10^n \\ A=2.3 \\ n=3 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the standard form in decimal is

$2.3\times10^3=2.3\times1000=2300$

The answer is 2300
