Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The number 6,000 represents the whole number part of the decimal. The number 0.047 represents the fractional part of the decimal. Therefore, the correct standard form would be 6,000.047, which is represented by option D. Option A is incorrect because it leaves out the decimal point. Option B has too many zeros and would not be standard form. Option C would be correct if it was 600.047 instead of 6000.047. The whole number value of the decimal is 6000, and the decimal portion is 0.047. Therefore, the correct answer is 6000.047 in standard form.
