Write the number 2, point, 8, times, 10, to the power minus 32.8×10 
−3
  in standard form.

To express \( 2.8 \times 10^{-3} \) in standard form, follow these steps:

1. The number is already in scientific notation form: \( 2.8 \times 10^{-3} \).
2. Standard form means the number is written as a decimal, which means we now convert \( 2.8 \times 10^{-3} \) into decimal notation.

To do this:
- Move the decimal point 3 places to the left because of the \( 10^{-3} \).

Thus:
\[
2.8 \times 10^{-3} = 0.0028
\]

So, \( 2.8 \times 10^{-3} \) in standard decimal form is **0.0028**.
