\nGenerally, we can think of $10^n$ as a number in standard form $1 \\times 10^n$. Then $n$ always tells us the number of decimal places to move the decimal point in $1.0$, for example
\n\\[10^{-3} = 1.0 \\times 10^{-3} \\text{ and since } n = - 3 \\text{, we go } 3 \\text{ places back as follows: } 1.0 ⇒ 0.1 ⇒ 0.01 ⇒ 0.001 \\text{ .}\\]
