Answer:

5.8 *
10^(-7)

Explanation:

Move the decimal so there is one n zero digit to the left of the decimal point. The number of decimal places you moved will be the exponent on the 10. If the decimal moves to the right, the exponent will be negative. If it moves to the left, the exponents will be positive.
