how do i write 5.1 x 10^-6 as a number in standard form?

3 answers

5.1 x 10^-6
Since the exponent is negative,
count 6 places to the left from where the decimal point is.

5.1 x 10^-6 = 0.0000051
Thats not right. The answer is or would be: 0.000001 please check your work!
Actually, anonymous, helper would be right! please correct YOUR work! Thank you very much!
