Standard form is a way of writing down very large or very small numbers easily. 103 = 1000, so 4 × 103 = 4000 . So 4000 can be written as 4 × 10³ . This idea can be used to write even larger numbers down easily in standard form.

Therefore, for this problem:

5.93e-5

In standard form,

5.93 * 10^(-5)

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!
