Answer:

The simplified mathematical expressions with the first factor to the nearest tenth are:

7.8 x 10

3.3 x 10^{3}

2.1 x 10^{-3}

3.7

<h3>What are the simplified mathematical expressions ?</h3>

Scientific notation is used to simplify large numbers in smaller numbers.  In order to write a number in scientific notation , the number is written as a decimal number, between 1 and 10 and multiplied by a power of 10.

(8.6 x 10^{7}) . (9.1 x 10^{-8})

= (8.6 x 9.1) x 10^{7 - 8}

= 78.26 x10^{-1}

= 7.8 x 10

(6.9 x 10^{5}) . (4.8 x 10^{-3})

= 33.12 x 10^{5 - 3}

3.3 x 10^{3}

(3.7 x 10^{2}) . (4.6 x 10^{-3}) ÷ (1.4 x 10^{-6}) . (5.7 x 10^{8})

= 1.7 x 10 ÷ 8 x10²

0.21 x 10^{-2}

2.1 x 10^{-3}

(3.1 x 10^{5}) . (5.3 x 10^{-9}) ÷ (7.3 x 10^{2}) . (6.1 x 10^{-7}) = 3.7
