To express the number \( 5.401 \times 10^{-1} \) in standard form, we need to move the decimal point one place to the left (since we are multiplying by \( 10^{-1} \)).
Starting with \( 5.401 \):
1. Move the decimal point one place to the left:
\[
5.401 \rightarrow 0.5401
\]
Thus,
\[
5.401 \times 10^{-1} = 0.5401
\]
Therefore, in standard form, the answer is:
\[
\boxed{0.5401}
\]
