To convert a number from scientific notation to standard form, you need to move the decimal point to the right or left based on the exponent.
In the given number, 3.56 × 10^–5, the negative exponent indicates that we need to move the decimal point to the left.
Step 1: Start with the given number, 3.56
Step 2: Move the decimal point 5 places to the left, since the exponent is -5
0.0000356
