Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
(1x10^-8)/(4x10^7)
You are very close to the right answer.
The 1/4 = 0.25
The 10^-8 /10^7 =10^-15
You could write the answer as 0.25x10^-15
but you have to write in in scientific notation.
So you have to multiply the 0.25 by 10 and
divide the 10^-15 by 10.
You get 2.5x10^-16
