For this case we have the following number:
1,000,000
We note that the number has 7 significant figures.
To write it in scientific notation we must write the number as follows:

a * 10 ^ b
Where,
a: first significant figure
b: Exponent that represents the rest of significant figures.
Rewriting the number we have:

1000000 = 1 * 10 ^ 6
Answer:
1,000,000 to scientific notation is:

1 * 10 ^ 6
