Answer

$1,278,000$

Work Step by Step

We are given the number $1.278\times10^{6}$. Since the exponent is positive, move the decimal 6 places to the right. Note that 6 places to the right will be 3 decimal places past the last digit (8), so we will add 3 zeroes after 8. $1.278\times10^{6}=1,278,000$
