1.3×100=1.3 in standard form.

Explanation:

In scientific notation, we write a number so that it has single digit to the left of decimal sign and is multiplied by an integer power of 10.

In other words, in scientific notation, a number is written as a×10n, where 1a<10 and n is an integer and 1a<10.

To write the number in normal or standard notation one just needs to multiply by the power 10n (or divide if n is negative). This means moving decimal n digits to right if multiplying by 10n and moving decimal n digits to left if dividing by 10n (i.e. multiplying by 10n).

In the given case, as we have the number as 1.3×100, we need not move decimal digit to either side and hence in standard notation 1.3×100=1.3 itself.
