3.932 × 10^5

First you want to count how many zeros are in there 2 ok then count the 932 because the 3 hundred thousand is going to stay as a regular digit then when you have a scientific notation you need it to be a power of 10 so ten is always going to be the coefficient for the decimal basically.
