Scientific notation is a way to make the numbers easier to work with. In scientific notation, we move the decimal place until we have a number between 1 and 10. Then we add a power of ten that tells how many places we moved the decimal.

We have to express six hundred ten thousand in scientific notation.

Six hundred ten thousand = 610,000

610,000

=
6.1 * 10^(5)

Therefore,
6.1 * 10^(5) is the required scientific notation.
