Answer:

0.006

Explanation:

The number is currently in scientific notation. To change scientific notation into standard notation move the decimal place equal to the number of the exponent. In this case, the exponent is -3. So, move the decimal place 3 digits. Since the 3 is negative, move the decimal to the left. Therefore, 6.0x10^-3 becomes 0.006 because the decimal was moved 3 places to the left. When moving the decimal fill in any empty spaces with zeros.
