To write 137,000 in scientific notation, you express it as a number between 1 and 10 multiplied by a power of ten.
1. First, move the decimal point in 137,000 so that there is only one non-zero digit to its left. This gives us 1.37.
2. Next, count how many places you moved the decimal to get from 137,000 to 1.37. You moved it 5 places to the left.
