what is standard form?
THE SIMPLIFIED FORM OF A FRACTION IS CALLED ITS STANDARD FORM
Standard Form of a Decimal Number
In Britain this is another name for Scientific Notation, where you write down a number this way:
 |
| In this example, 5326.6 is written as 5.3266 × 103, because 5326.6 = 5.3266 × 1000 = 5326.6 × 103 |
In other Countries it just means "not in expanded form":
| 561 | 500 + 60 + 1 |
| Standard Form | Expanded Form |
