1.2606×104or1.2606E4

Explanation:

12606 is written as 1.2606×104

Note: Counting from right to left, the exponential value would be positive, while counting from left to right, the exponential value would be negative.

So having, 12606 counting from right to left, we moved the decimal point across four places. That is the reason why the exponential/scientific value is 4

Hence making; 12606=1.2606×104or1.2606E4 in scientific notation..
