Answer:


1.93475*10^(-10)

Explanation:

To multiply the decimal numbers in scientific notation, multiply the decimals and add the powers of the 10.


\sf 5.45 * 10^(-4)* 3.55*10^(-7)=5.45*3.55 * 10^((-4)+(-7))


\sf = 19.3475*10^(-11)

Now, write the decimal 19.3475 in scientific notation.

As we have to move the decimal one count towards left, add 1 to the power.


\sf = 1.93475*10^(-11+1)\\\\ = 1.93475*10^(-10)
