1 X 10 -6. That is one times 10 to the -6 power.

Scientific notation is written as:
n.m### x 10^x where n (n is less than or equal to 9) and m are integers, and # is integer but may or may not be needed, depending on the stated accuracy of the number. x is also expected to be an integer.
To convert a number to scientific notation, simply "walk" the number until you have only one digit to the left, and the remainder to the right. The number of places you "walk" will represent the power of 10. If you walk to the right, the power will be negative; if you walk to the left, the power will be positive.
In your question, we walk 6 places to the right so our power is -6....
1.0 x 10^-6
again, depending on accuracy, we may need to write it as 1. x 10^6 for minimum accuracy, or 1.0000 x 10^6 for more accuracy.
Hope this helps!

That would be a millionth of a point, or 10 to the -6 power.
