Question

Fill in the blanks to make the statement true: $53700000=\_\_\_\_\_\_\times {10}^7$.

Answer 1

Compute the required number:

The standard form of a number:- it is a way of representing a number in which any number can be expressed in decimals from $1.0$ to $10.0$ and also multiplied with powers of $10$.

By using the definition of standard form, we can write

$\begin{array}{rcl}53700000& =& 537\times 100000\\ & =& 5.37\times 100\times 100000\\ & =& 5.37\times 10000000\\ & =& 5.37\times {10}^7\end{array}$

Hence, the required statement is $53700000=\underline{5.37}\times {10}^7$.
