The difference between Word Form, Standard Form, and Expanded Form lies in how numbers are represented using words, digits, or place values.

Standard Form

Standard form is simply the usual way of writing numbers using digits. For example, the number four thousand five hundred thirty-six is written as 4536 in standard form.

Word Form

Word form is writing out the number using words. For the same number, 4536, the word form is 'four thousand five hundred thirty-six'.

Expanded Form

Expanded form shows the value of each digit in the number. It breaks the number down to express the value of each place. For instance, 4536 in expanded form is 4000 + 500 + 30 + 6.
