2.528 X 106

Remember, in scientific notation, we move the decimal one place to the right of the first non-zero digit. Then we count how many places we move it. Moving it to the left results in a positive exponent on "10" equal to the number of places we moved it. Moving it to the right results in a negative exponent on "10" equal to the places we moved it.
