Question

8.25 × 10–4 in standard form.

Answer 1

The 10^-4 means that the decimal point is 4 places to the left of where it is in 8.25 (if the exponent was positive the decimal point would be to the right). If you move the decimal point 4 places to the left you get an answer of 0.000825 which is 8.25 * 10^-4 in standard form.
