  1. Dr Frost Standard Form Objectives: Appreciate the need to put big and small numbers in a more readable form, how to write numbers in standard form, and calculations involving numbers in standard form.

  2. Scale of the Universe www.scaleofuniverse.com

  3. Standard Form A number between 1 and 10 (excluding 10) Any whole number (can be negative) ? 10? (No need to copy this) Standard Form is useful for two reasons: 1. It allows us to write really small or really big numbers concisely... 2. It allows us to compare small and big numbers. Which is bigger?! Which is bigger? 2.34 x 1014 2.34 x 1013 234000000000000 23400000000000

  4. On a calculator? 4.86 1021 2.88 109

  5. Converting from Standard Form We just consider how many times we re multiplying or dividing by 10. 3 x 104 = 30000 1.24 x 105 = 124000 ? ? Hint: Remember what happens when we have a negative index. 6 x 10-3 = 0.006 1.01 x 10-1 = 0.101 ? ?

  6. Converting from Standard Form We just consider how many times we re multiplying or dividing by 10. 3.012 x 107 = 30,120,000 7.5 x 101 = 75 ? ? 8.31 x 100 = 8.31 2.4 x 10-6 = 0.0000024 ? ?

  7. Converting to Standard Form How many times do we need to move the decimal point until we re in the range 1 to 10? (excluding 10) 20000 = 2 x 104 0.0043 = 4.3 x 10-3 ? ? 931,000,000 = 9.31 x 108 0.000001001 = 1.001 x 10-6 ? ?

  8. Exercises Express as a normal number. Express in standard form. ??? ? ? 300 = ? ??? 5,100 = ?.? ??? 72,040.4= ?.????? ??? 119,988.7= ?.?????? ??? 6,320,110= ?.????? ??? 8,108,136 = ?.?????? ??? 77,012 = ?.???? ??? 1.72= ?.?? ??? 34.7= ?.?? ??? 0.001 = ? ?? ? 0.00034 = ?.? ?? ? 0.9 = ? ?? ? 0.801 = ?.?? ?? ? 0.01087 = ?.??? ?? ? 0.00009 = ? ?? ? 0.00008632 = ?.??? ?? ? 0.11 = ?.? ?? ? ? 3 x 102 = ??? 4.71 x 103= ???? 2.401 x 105= ?????? 7.42 x 106= ??????? 1.1111 x 103= ????.? 1.5 x 10-1= ?.?? 3.01 x 10-4= ?.?????? 9.89 x 10-6= ?.???????? 3.456 x 10-7 = ?.?????????? 1.234 x 10-1= ?.???? ? ?? ?? ? ?? ?? ? ? ??? ??? ? ? ?

  9. Testing your knowledge (vote with your diary) 200,000,000 20 x 107 2 x 108 2 x 107 32,000 3.2 x 104 32 x 103 3.2 x 105 9 9 x 10-1 9 x 100 9 x 101 0.0001 1 x 10-3 1 x 10-4 1 x 10-5 0.012 1.2 x 10-4 12 x 10-3 1.2 x 10-2

  10. Multiplying numbers in standard form (2 x 103) x (4 x 104) = 8 x 107 ? ? (7 x 105) x (6 x 106) = 42 x 1011 = 4.2 x 1012 ? ?

  11. Multiplying numbers in standard form (9 x 10-2) x (9 x 10-3) = 81 x 10-5 = 8.1 x 101 x 10-5 = 8.1 x 10-4 ? ? ?

  12. Dividing numbers in standard form 4 105 8 10 2 = 0.5 x 107 = 5 x 10-1 x 107 ? ? = 5 x 106 ?

  13. Dividing numbers in standard form 3 10 10 8 10 6 = 0.375 10 4 = 3.75 10 5 ? ?

  14. Questions Edexcel GCSE Mathematics Textbook Page 429 - Exercise 26B Q4, 5 Page 432 Exercise 26C Q4, 5

  15. Adding and Subtracting ? 1000 + 2000 = 3000 1 103+ 2 103= 3 103 ? 4 103+ 2 104 = 0.4 104+ 2 104 = 2.4 104 ? ?

  16. Examples 1.1 105+ 2 104= 1.3 105 ? 1.1 105 2 104= 9 104 ? 5 107+ 2 105= 5.02 107 ? 6.2 10 2+ 3 10 3= 6.5 10 2 ? 9 1010+ 2 1012= 2.09 1012 ? 3.2 10 4 5 10 5= 2.7 10 4 ?
