Move the decimal point to the right, by as many digits as the exponent. Examples (using "^" for "power"):

5.3 times 10^3 = 5300 (note the implicit decimal point at the end)

1.2784 x 10^2 = 127.84

5 x 10^4 = 50000

etc. And for negative powers, move the decimal point to the left, for example:

5.3 x 10^(-3) = 0.0053
