For a 5th grader, the best way to write "thirty-six and four tenths" in standard form is **36.4**.

This format explicitly shows both the whole number part (36) and the decimal part (4 tenths, which equals 0.4). It's clear, concise, and easy to understand, making it suitable for their comprehension level.

Other ways to write it for older students or contexts might include:

* **36 4/10:** This shows the fraction equivalent of the decimal 0.4, but might be less familiar for 5th graders.

* **Thirty-six point four:** This uses spoken language but lacks the precision of decimal notation.
