To express the number 2,000 in scientific notation, we need to convert it to a decimal number greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10, multiplied by a power of 10. Here's how you can do it step-by-step:

1. Count the number of zeros in the original number. In this case, there are three zeros (2,000).

2. Move the decimal point to the right so that there is exactly one non-zero digit to the left of the decimal point. Since 2 is the non-zero digit in this case, we can write it as 2.0.

3. Determine the power (exponent) of 10 required to put the decimal point back in its original position. Since we moved the decimal point three places to the right, the exponent of 10 is positive three (10^3).

4. Put it all together in scientific notation: 2,000 can be expressed as 2.0 x 10^3.

So, the scientific notation for 2,000 is 2.0 x 10^3.
