All are correct!

${0.4}^{14} = 0.00000268435456$ $0.4^14 = 0.00000268435456$

Which is same thing as;

${0.4}^{14} = 0.00000268435456 \approx 0.000003$ $0.4^14 = 0.00000268435456 ~~ 0.000003$ Approximately!

$2.6843 . E - 6$ $2.6843.E-6$ Is the Scientific/Engineering Notation of $0.00000268435456$ $0.00000268435456$

Which means you have to count the Number of Zero's 6 times before arriving at the a significant digit.
