In the scientific value of 5.893 x 10n. The standard value is 0.00005893 what is n? To better illustrate this phenomenon, we can explain it further under the rules of scientific notation.
For example.
1. 3 x 10^3 = 3 x 100 = 300

2. 3 x 10^-3 = 3 x 0.001 = 0.003

Solution:
0.00005893 = 5.893 x 0.00001 = 5.893 x 10^-5
n= ^-5
