5(6*10^3+400) in standard form?

 

5(6400) = 32000 

Now you have to have just one digit in front of the decimal point  so that is   3.200

now 32000 is a big number (bigger than 1) so the power will be positive

 

The number was 32000.

Now it is             3.2000

 

How many numbers did you have to jump the point over?    That is the power.

 

so the answer will be      3.2000 x 10^ however many places you moved the point

 

Would you like to tell me the proper answer now?   :)
