Answer 1

Answer:

1.586x10^-9

Explanation:

To make a multiplication in scientific notation we need to multiply the coefficients and sum the exponents:

Coefficients: 2.600 * 6.1000 = 15.86

Exponents: -5 + (-5) = -10

The result is:

15.86x10^-10

As the scientific notation must be given with only 1 number in the left of the point:

1.586x10^-9
