How do you write the number 2.7 × 10-1 in standard form?
0.27
Order of operations dictates that 2.7*10 is evaluated first, which gives you 27-1, which is 26.
2.7 x 1/10 = .27
Move decimal point ONE place to the left to get 0.27. That is what the -1 says to do. If it said -3 you would move it 3 places and so on.
.27
