Quizplus · Accepted Answer

First, convert each number to scientific notation: $0.00027 = 2.7 \times 10^{-4}$, $0.0002 = 2 \times 10^{-4}$, $0.0009 = 9 \times 10^{-4}$. Then, perform the operation: $\frac{2.7 \times 10^{-4} \times 2 \times 10^{-4}}{9 \times 10^{-4}} = \frac{5.4 \times 10^{-8}}{9 \times 10^{-4}} = 6 \times 10^{-5}$.
