What Every Young Mathlete Should Know
... The standard form of a number refers to the form in which we usually write numbers (also called Hindu-Arabic numerals or positional notation). A digit is any one of the ten numerals 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. Combinations of digits assigned place values are used to write all numbers. A number may be descr ...
