Hello!

Most calculators are configured so that when the number is too big, it automatically shows it on scientific notation. The E represents exponent. The calculator is trying to say
5.378 * 10^9. It means we should move the decimal point 9 spaces to the right.

The number in standard form would be: 5,378,000,000

You can feel free to let me know if you have any questions regarding this!
Thanks!
