# 2.86 xx 10^7#

In scientific notation the number is written as a single digit to the left of the decimal point multiplied by a power of ten.

Moving the decimal point seven places to the left leaves 2.86 This number is then multiplied by # 10^7# (ten to the seventh power) to account for the seven decimal point displacement.
