Answer 1

Hint: We have to write the standard form of $0.0000523$. So we want to represent in smaller form, that is we have to write in standard form. So count the numbers after decimal till $2$and write it. Try it, you will get the answer,

Complete step by step solution:

Any number that we can write as a decimal number, between $1.0$ and $10.0$, multiplied by a power of $10$, is said to be in standard form.
So in question, we have to write $0.0000523$ in standard form.
We have to write in terms of $10$.
So the standard form will be $5.23\times {{10}^{-5}}$.
As you could see that there were 5 digits present before the decimal point what we have taken in the above step , that is before number $5$
So we get the standard form of $0.0000523$ which is $5.23\times {{10}^{-5}}$.

Note: Read the question carefully. Think about it. Also, your concept regarding standard form should be clear. While writing, don't make any mistake. Avoid silly mistakes. Do not confuse yourself.
