$(3.2 \times 10^{6}) \cdot (8.7 \times 10^{11})$ $(3.2 times 10^6)cdot(8.7 times 10^{11})$

by grouping the digit terms together and the exponential terms together,

$= (3.2 \cdot 8.7) \times (10^{6} \cdot 10^{11})$ $=(3.2 cdot 8.7) times (10^6 cdot 10^{11})$

by multiplying out,

$= 27.84 \times 10^{17}$ $=27.84 times 10^{17}$

by rewriting it in scientific notation,

$= 2.784 \times 10^{18}$ $=2.784 times 10^{18}$

I hope that this was helpful.
