Understanding Standard Form

In this video, Mr. J explains how to convert numbers into standard form, which involves writing numbers using only digits. The tutorial covers three examples: converting numbers from word form to standard form, including a large number, and converting from expanded form to standard form. Each example is broken down step-by-step to ensure understanding, with emphasis on checking the accuracy of conversions.

What is the main focus of the video tutorial?

• Studying fractions and decimals

• Learning to solve algebraic equations

• Understanding how to convert numbers to standard form

• Exploring geometric shapes

In the example of 62,314, what is the value of the digit '3'?

• 3

• 30

• 300

• 3,000

When converting 62,314 from word form to standard form, which period does the number 62 belong to?

• Thousands

• Millions

In the number 18 billion 34 million 200, what should be placed in the thousands period?

• 18

• 0

• 34
