The final result in standard scientific notation is
\(2.03 * 10^(-6)\).


Let's solve the expression (3.5 x 10^2) * (5.8 x 10^-9) step by step.

1. Multiply the coefficients (numbers outside the powers of 10):


\(3.5 * 5.8 = 20.3\).

2. Multiply the powers of 10:


\(10^2 * 10^(-9) = 10^(2-9) = 10^(-7)\).

3. Combine the results from steps 1 and 2:


\(20.3 * 10^(-7)\).

So, the final result in standard scientific notation is
\(2.03 * 10^(-6)\).

The probable question can be:

Calculate the product of (3.5 x 10^2) and (5.8 x 10^-9), expressing the result in standard scientific notation.
