To determine how many times larger one value is compared to another, we divide the two values.
(1.008 × 10^1) / (6 × 10^-1)
Convert both values to the same power of 10:
(1.008 × 10^1) / (0.6 × 10^0)
Now divide:
1.008 / 0.6 = 1.68
Therefore, (1.008 × 10^1) is 1.68 times larger than (6 × 10^-1).
The correct answer is not listed, as none of the given options are 1.68.
