See a solution process below:

Explanation:

Equation 1) The decimal point needs to move 2 places to the right, therefore we need to subtract 2 from the 10s exponent:

-0.07395 xx 10^9 = -7.395 xx 10^7

Equation 2) The decimal point needs to move 1 places to the left, therefore we need to add 1 to the 10s exponent:

51.26 xx 10^-7 = 5.216 xx 10^-6

Equation 3) The decimal point needs to move 3 places to the right, therefore we need to subtract 3 from the 10s exponent:

-0.004332 xx 10^-8 = -4.332 xx 10^-11
