Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
2.7 * 10 ^-5 / 9 * 10 ^-6
First divide the numbers
2.7 / 9 = .3
Then divide the exponents
10^-5 / 10 ^ -6
When we divide exponents we subtract
10^(-5 - -6) = 10 ^1
.3 * 10 ^1
But scientific notation has a number between 1 and less than 10
Move the decimal 1 place to the left, so we subtract 1 from the exponent
3 * 10 ^ (1-1)
3 * 10 ^0
