$\frac{2.24 \cdot 10^{- 2}}{1.66 \cdot 10^{6}}$

Step 1

Group coefficients together and exponents together to divide numbers in scientific notation.

$(\frac{2.24}{1.66}) (\frac{10^{- 2}}{10^{6}})$

Step 2

Divide $2.24$ by $1.66$ .

$1.34939759 \frac{10^{- 2}}{10^{6}}$

Step 3

Subtract the exponent from the denominator from the exponent of the numerator for the same base

$1.34939759 \cdot 10^{- 2 + 6 \cdot - 1}$

Step 4

Multiply $6$ by $- 1$ .

$1.34939759 \cdot 10^{- 2 - 6}$

Step 5

Subtract $6$ from $- 2$ .

$1.34939759 \cdot 10^{- 8}$
