In standard scientific notation, it has be to a number from 1-9 followed by a decimal.
0.239 is incorrect because there isn't a number from 1-9 before the decimal.

I believe when you are writing things in scientific notation this number \(\sf \color{olive}{0.239}\) should be \(\sf \color{olive}{2.39}\).
