Answer:

3.43×10¹⁰

Explanation:

The steps to multiply two numbers that are in scientific notation are:

  1. Multiply the two decimals. (4.9×7)=34.3
  2. Multiply the exponential parts by adding the exponents. (10³×10⁶=10³⁺⁶=10⁹)
  3. Write the answer in scientific notation. (34.3×10⁹)
  4. If the decimal part is equal to or greater than 10, move the decimal point one place to the left and add one to the exponent. (3.43×10¹⁰)

Hopefully this helped you.
