Lesson Objective Revise how to write numbers using Standard Form Understand what the notation for Standard Form Means Begin to use a calculator to solve problems involving Standard Form

Match the items with their correct sizes. Can you write each size in Standard Form?

A number written in Standard Form will always look like this: Number here MUST be: 1  a < 10 Must always be written as × 10n n is +ve for big numbers n is –ve for small numbers

Important key facts about Standard Index Form Write the number in the following form: a × 10n Number here MUST be: 1 ≤ a < 10 Must always be written as × 10n n is +ve for big numbers n is –ve for small numbers Eg 6.23 × 105 = 623000 4.21 × 10-3 = 0.00421

For S.I. Form without a calculator: When multiplying and dividing use the normal index laws, but make certain the final answer is properly in S.I. Form Eg. 7×104 × 3×105 = 21×109 = 2.1×1010 When adding and subtracting take the numbers out of S.I. Form (or at least adjust them so that the index is the same) then add/subtract as normal Eg. 7×103 + 3×105 = 7×103 + 300×103 = 307×103 = 3.07×105 (or do 7000 + 300000 = 307000 = 3.07 ×105)
