#### Find the product:

1. $5.93 \times 10^1 = 5.93 \times 10 = 59.3$
2. $0.83 \times 10^2 = 0.83 \times 100 = 83$
3. $44.2 \times 10^4 = 44.2 \times 10,000 = 442,000$
4. $6.101 \times 10^2 = 6.101 \times 100 = 610.1$
5. $0.0351 \times 10^3 = 0.0351 \times 1,000 = 35.1$
6. $9.12 \times 10^3 = 9.12 \times 1,000 = 9,120$

7. $1.372 \times 10^3 = 1.372 \times 1,000 = 1,372$
8. $9.2 \times 10^5 = 9.2 \times 100,000 = 920,000$
9. $0.06 \times 10^1 = 0.06 \times 10 = 0.6$
10. $0.140 \times 10^2 = 0.140 \times 100 = 14.0$
11. $13.13 \times 10^4 = 13.13 \times 10,000 = 131,300$
12. $80.93 \times 10^3 = 80.93 \times 1,000 = 80,930$

2. $77.49 \div 10^2 = 77.49 \div 100 = 0.7749$
3. $45 \div 10^4 = 45 \div 10,000 = 0.0045$
4. $502 \div 10^2 = 502 \div 100 = 5.02$
5. $293.3 \div 10^3 = 293.3 \div 1,000 = 0.2933$
6. $14.52 \div 10^3 = 14.52 \div 1,000 = 0.01452$

7. $6,214.7 \div 10^3 = 6,214.7 \div 1,000 = 6.2147$
8. $361.7 \div 10^5 = 361.7 \div 100,000 = 0.003617$
9. $100.3 \div 10^1 = 100.3 \div 10 = 10.03$
10. $4.3 \div 10^2 = 4.3 \div 100 = 0.043$
11. $22.09 \div 10^4 = 22.09 \div 10,000 = 0.002209$
12. $0.42 \div 10^3 = 0.42 \div 1,000 = 0.00042$
