To divide the numbers \( 7.6 \times 10^9 \) by \( 7.6 \times 10^1 \), you can follow these steps:
1. Divide the coefficients (the numbers in front):
\[
\frac{7.6}{7.6} = 1
\]
2. Subtract the exponents of the powers of ten:
\[
10^{9 - 1} = 10^8
\]
3. Combine the results:
\[
1 \times 10^8 = 10^8
\]
Thus, the final answer in scientific notation is:
\[
1.0 \times 10^8
\]
However, it is often acceptable to write it simply as \( 10^8 \).
