Answer 1

1.04 x 10^2 in standard form = 104

----------------

Answer 2

The required standard form is 104.

Explanation:

Consider the provided number.

you can convert the scientific notation into long hand notation as shown:

If the exponent of 10 is a positive number then you need to move the decimal point right as much as the exponent value.

If the exponent of 10 is a negative number then you need to move the decimal point left as much as the exponent value.

Now consider the provided number.

`1.04 * 10^2`

Here the power of 10 is positive, so move the decimal point right as shown.

`104`

Hence, the required standard form is 104.
