Answer:

750

Explanation:

first, we will use the fraction- division format
((x)/(y))

x= 4.5 ·
10^(-4)

y= 6 ·
10^(-7)

plug in the x and y values

(4.5* 10^(-4))/(6*10^(-7))

use the scientific notation

$x= 4.5 * 10^ {-4}=0.00045 \\y=6 * 10^(-7) = (3)/(5,000,000)$

plug in your new x and y values

(0.00045)/((3)/(5,000,000) )

Apply the fraction rule
((x)/((y)/(z) ) =(x * z)/(y) )

(0.00045 * 5,000,000)/(3)

Multiply the numbers

$\frac{2250} {3}$

Divide the numbers
