Answer 1

Answer:

The decimal point should be moved Six places to the right side because there are Six zeros in 10 to the power of 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we have to represent the number in the form of $10^{6}$ we need to move the decimal Six places towards left because there are Six zeros in $10^{6}$ i.e. 1000000. For this purpose we will add four zeros to the left of the number.

So the number in the format mentioned in question will look like -

0.00003405 × $10^{6}$.
