There should be a decimal point in there somewhere; I guess it is after the first zero: 0.00001 = 10-5
The place value of .000001 is one millionth

No, that is engineering notation. 3.59 X 10^24 is the same number in scientific notation.

89,000 in engineering notation is 89 x 10^3
how Yu express 0.55 in engineering notation
Scientific notation: 3.3*103 And I'm not certain, but I think it is also 3.3*103 in engineering notation
The place value of .000001 is one millionth
one millionth
Take, .000001 for example. We need to move the decimal 6 places to the right. This is the same as multiply by 10-6 .0.000001 =1x10-6
Engineering notation has to be a factor of 1000. (10^3, 10^6, 20^9, etc.
Sometimes engineers use either scientific or engineering notation, although you are correct that most of the time engineering notation is used. The reason for this the use if greek letter prefixes for quantities. Very often large and small quantities are expressed as micro, mega, giga, nano, and so on. These terms relate to engineering notation in multiples of 1000 or 1/1000. It is a very convenient shorthand not only in writing but also while speaking.
6.2*106.
It is: 3.75*10^11
