Answer: find the quotient, we need to divide the two numbers:
(1.06 × 10^7) ÷ (2.65 × 10^4)
First, let's divide the coefficients:
1.06 ÷ 2.65 ≈ 0.4
Next, let's divide the powers of 10:
10^7 ÷ 10^4 = 10^(7-4) = 10^3
Now, let's combine the results:
0.4 × 10^3 = 4 × 10^2
So, the quotient expressed in scientific notation is:
4 × 10^2
