BECE Mathematics 2026 Paper

Concept:Standard form writes a number as $a \times 10^n$, where $1 \le a < 10$.Solution:Move the decimal point in $0.000437$ until it is after the $4$: $4.37$.The decimal point moved 4 places to the right, so the power is $10^{-4}$.Thus, $0.000437 = 4.37 \times 10^{-4}$.Answer:Option A ($4.37 \times 10^{-4}$)
