Answer:

0,00027 grams!

Explanation:

This is a scientific notation problem.

When a number is followed by a
10^(-1), it means that said number has one zero at the beginning.

In this case, the number is followed by
10^(-4), so that means that 2.7 has four zeros at the beginning. So, 2.7x
10^(-4) grams is equal to 0,00027 grams! (always the comma goes after the first zero).
