The total cost to deliver all the pieces of first-class mail can be calculated by multiplying the number of pieces by the cost of each stamp.
52×1010 pieces x $0.55/stamp = $8.36×1010
In scientific notation, this is expressed as 8.36x1010 dollars.
52×1010 pieces x $0.55/stamp = $8.36×1010

I apologize for the mistake. Let's correct the calculation.
The total cost to deliver all the pieces of first-class mail can be calculated by multiplying the number of pieces by the cost of each stamp.
1.52 × 10^10 pieces x $0.55/stamp = $8.36 × 10^9.
Therefore, the total cost in dollars to deliver all the pieces is 8.36 × 10^9 dollars.
