15500 in standard form

I would call that standard form! If you mean scientific form it is 1.55*10^4

 

Ok, an internet search suggests that standard form is another way of saying scientific form!

.

I am amazed Alan !

I was always taught that the world at large would say

$$1.55*10^4$$     is in Scientific Notation.

BUT the English would say it was in   Standard Form

This was an irritation to me at school because the two terms were used interchangably and like you I thought an ordinary number should be in standard form.

 

Now you are English and you say you do not know the term Standard Form !! I am amazed !!
