Step 1: First, we will convert the number 52 to scientific notation. After that, we will multiply the result by 10^-7.

Step 2: Since 52 do not have a decimal point, we will add one at the end of the number 52.

52.

Step 3: Move the decimal point from its current position (the black dot) to a position immediately to the right of the first nonzero digit (the red dot).

5.2.

Step 4: We moved the decimal point 1 spaces to the right. Therefore, the exponent on base 10 will be positive 1.Now we know that the:

Mantissa = 5.2

Exponent = 1

So, the solution is:

$$52 = \color{blue}{ 5.2} \cdot 10^{ \color{red}{ 1 }}$$

Step 5: Now we need to multiply the above result by $10^{ -7 }$.

$$ 5.2 \cdot 10^{ 1 } \cdot 10^{ -7 } = 5.2 \cdot 10^{ 1-7 } = 5.2 \cdot 10^{ -6 } $$
