$2.71 \times 10^{5}$ $2.71 xx 10^5$

Explanation:

Since scientific notation requires a single integer on the left side of the period, just move the decimal over one place to the left.

This will add one to the exponent, making it a 5. This is due to the decimal being moved over 5 spaces to the left from the end of the original number (271,000).
