To find the quotient of two numbers in scientific notation, we should divide the numbers that are not in scientific notation and subtract the exponents.
In this case, the quotient of 3.069 X 10^6 and 4.95 X 10^2 is:
(3.069 / 4.95) X (10^6 / 10^2)
= 0.619 X 10^(6 - 2)
= 0.619 X 10^4
Therefore, the quotient is 0.619 X 10^4 or 6.19 X 10^3.
