For scientific notation, you always want 1 digits in front of the decimal.

Ex) 7.39*10^5

Move the decimal point in between the 1 and 4, or 1 place to the left.

1.435

Since the decimal point was moved 1 place to the left, the exponent after 10 will be 1.

1.435*10^1

1.435*10^1 is your final answer.

1.435*10 is the same thing also.
