In scientific notation, scientific notation is a way to represent numbers that are very large or very small.

To write a number in scientific notation, we express the number as a product of a decimal number between 1 and 10 and a power of 10.

The general form of a number in scientific notation is: a x 10^n

where 'a' is the decimal number and 'n' is the power of 10.

Now, let's look at the numbers given for each part.

1. 1.2 x 10^3
2. 3.5 x 10^2
3. 6.8 x 10^4
4. 2.9 x 10^5
5. 5.7 x 10^7

For each part, we will perform the requested operation and express the result in scientific notation if necessary.
