From Words to Standard Form
Read everything that comes before the word “and.” Write that number down.Place a decimal point at the word “and.”Read the last word of the sentence to see how many decimal places you need.Fill in the decimal places with your number. Fill in as far to the right as possible, and use zeroes to fill any empty spaces.

Example: Write the following number in standard form:
two hundred six and fifty-four ten-thousandths
206.The word “ten-thousandths” indicates that we need four decimal places.
__ __ __ __5 40 0
When we clean it up, the answer is 206.0054
