When we write a number out longhand, we spell out the numbers. Twenty three is 23. Four hundred ten is 410. Two million three hundred sixteen thousand forty seven is 2,316,047. You get the idea. We are said to be writing the number in longhand or writing the number out in longhand. Longhand is usually thought of as the cursive handwriting style we use when we sign our names or when we practice penmanship. In general, we connect letters together so the connected letters form a word. Another definition is the one that applies here. "Longhand: having words written out in full by hand." That from the Free Online Dictionary (adjective). Mirriam Webster has the noun "longhand: characters or words written out fully by hand."

Cube root of 5 = 10^(log5/3) Before calculators this was more of a longhand method since you had to get the logs from a table in your textbook and actually divide by 3 without a calculator.
To write one hundred in standard form, you would simply write 100. To write one hundredth in standard form, you would write it as a decimal, which is 0.01.
