Since this was asked under the heading "scientific notation" I am going to assume the question should be
How do you divide $(9.2 \times 10^{28}) \div (4.6 \times 10^{9})$ $(9.2xx10^(28))div(4.6xx10^9)$

Separate the coefficients from the exponents;
divide the coefficients;
divide the exponents;
recombine for the answer

coefficients:
$\frac{9.2}{4.6}$ $9.2/4.6$
$= 2.0$ $=2.0$

exponents:
$\frac{10^{28}}{10^{9}}$ $10^28 / 10^9$
$= 10^{19}$ $=10^19$

$(9.2 \times 10^{28}) \div (4.6 \times 10^{9})$ $(9.2xx10^(28))div(4.6xx10^9)$
$= 2.0 \times 10^{19}$ $= 2.0 xx 10^19$
