So this is scientific notation. The "e" is basically saying *10^ (times 10 to the power of whatever number follows it). In this case, it's 1.1396506*10^(-7). So, you move your decimal place over 7 to the left, making it 0.00000011396506

Move the decimal 7 spaces to the right, which would actually give you 6, not 7, extra zeros in front of the 1.
.00000011396506
Something that might be helpful in the future: if the superscript number is negative move the decimal to the left by the number indicated, if it's positive move the decimal to the right.

move the decimal over 7 to the left, if the exponent was positive, you'd move it 7 to the right.
