Answer:

2.11670 x 10^8

Explanation:

211,670,000

To convert this standard notation number into a scientific number, you'll need to move the decimal 8 times to the left.

Remember, that the base of 10 always stays as 10. Only the exponent changes. We will be placing the 8 as the exponent since you moved the decimal 8 times to the left, making it 10^8 (if it were to the right, it would've been negative. I believe you'll learn more about that in class.) We can remove the zeros, thus leading to the answer of 2.11670 x 10^8.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate on asking! My math class just got on this topic! Hope this helped.
