Solution steps

Scientific notation is in the form

a \times 1 0^{b}

where

1 \leq a < 10

and

b

is an integer.

Move the decimal point to the \mathrm{left} to create a new number from 1 up to 10

a = 5.000000

Count the number of times you moved the decimal point

b = 6

= 5.000000 \times 1 0^{6}

Remove trailing zeroes

= 5 \times 1 0^{6}
