When Writing 6000 in scientific notation, we must first count the decimal places from the right side of the number going to the left then multiplied by 10 raised to the number of decimal places. So to write 6000 in scientific notation:

Answer:6.0x103

Because since there are 3 decimal places going to the right multiplied by 10 and raised to the number of decimal places.Likewise if 0.00006 is expressed in sci.(scientific) notation we write it as:

Answer:6x10-4

Rule: If the decimal point goes to the left, the exponent is positive but if it goes to the left,the exponent is negative
