a 2.8919 × 10⁵
b 2.8919 × 10⁴⁵
c 2.8919 × 10⁴
d 2.8919 × 10¹⁴

Explanation:

Step1: Split into two divisions

$\frac{9.63}{3.33} \times \frac{10^9}{10^5}$

Step2: Calculate coefficient division

$\frac{9.63}{3.33} \approx 2.8919$

Step3: Calculate power of 10 division

$\frac{10^9}{10^5} = 10^{9-5} = 10^4$

Step4: Multiply results

$2.8919 \times 10^4$

Answer:
