standard form is a way of writing large or small numbers easily. see below for example

Explanation:

Write 81 900 000 000 000 in standard form: 81 900 000 000 000 = 8.19 × 10^13 the 13 means that the decimal point was moved 13 times and the 10 b/c it's a zero and you always use that so hence why the 10^13
