Answer: The result of the given calculation is [tex]2.98\times 10^{-4}cm[/tex]
Explanation:
Scientific notation is defined as the notation in which a number is expressed in the decimal form. This means that the number is always written in the power of 10 form.
We are given an expression:
[tex]\Rightarrow \frac{0.0263cm^2}{88.2cm}[/tex]
The operation carried out in the above expression is division operation. The units are also treated in the same way.
The solution for the above expression is:
[tex]\Rightarrow \frac{0.0263cm^2}{88.2cm}=0.000298cm[/tex]
The value in scientific notation is [tex]2.98\times 10^{-4}cm[/tex]
Hence, the result of the given calculation is [tex]2.98\times 10^{-4}cm[/tex]
