Q. 49

State whether the given statements are True or False.

In the standard form, a large number can be expressed as a decimal number between 0 and 1, multiplied by a power of 10.

Answer :

For the standard form notation, only one number is kept before the decimal point and rest all numbers are written after decimal point.

The power of 10 denotes the number of terms shifted after the decimal point.

A number in standard form is represented as a × 10^k where a lies in the range of 1 to 10.

So the statement is false.
