Answer 1

It looks like part of the problem statement got cut off — I don’t have the full expression to divide. Could you paste the complete problem (the dividend and divisor or the full multiple‑choice options)?

While you do that, here’s the general method and a couple of worked examples so you can check or apply to your specific numbers.

Method for dividing in scientific notation
- If you have (A × 10^m) ÷ (B × 10^n), compute (A ÷ B) × 10^(m−n).
- If the coefficient A÷B is not between 1 and 10, adjust by moving a power of 10 and change the exponent accordingly to put it in proper scientific notation.
- Round the coefficient as required by the problem (typically to the same number of significant figures as the given coefficients).

Examples
1) (3.0 × 10^8) ÷ (3.0 × 10^2)
- Coefficients: 3.0 ÷ 3.0 = 1.0
- Exponents: 8 − 2 = 6
- Answer: 1.0 × 10^6

2) (6.2 × 10^5) ÷ (2.0 × 10^-3)
- Coefficients: 6.2 ÷ 2.0 = 3.1
- Exponents: 5 − (−3) = 8
- Answer: 3.1 × 10^8

3) (1.5 × 10^3) ÷ (5.0 × 10^4)
- Coefficients: 1.5 ÷ 5.0 = 0.30
- Exponents: 3 − 4 = −1
- Combine: 0.30 × 10^(−1) = 3.0 × 10^(−2) (adjust to proper form)

Paste the exact division you need and I’ll compute it and give the answer in scientific notation.
