Answered by GPT-4o mini
To divide \(3.3 \times 10^4\) by \(5.5 \times 10^7\), you can follow these steps:

1. Divide the coefficients:
\[
\frac{3.3}{5.5} = 0.6
\]

2. Subtract the exponents of 10:
\[
10^4 \div 10^7 = 10^{4-7} = 10^{-3}
\]

3. Combine the results:
\[
0.6 \times 10^{-3}
\]

You can also express it in standard form:
\[
= 6.0 \times 10^{-4}
\]

Therefore, \( \frac{3.3 \times 10^4}{5.5 \times 10^7} = 6.0 \times 10^{-4} \).
