Multiply by #10^3#; equivalently divide thru by #10^-3#.

#1.54xx10^-10*L# #=# #1.54xx10^-10*cancelLxx10^3*mL*cancel(L^-1)#

#=# #1.54xx10^-7*mL#

If #1*muL# #=# #10^-6*L#, how many #"microlitres"# does the answer represent?

Multiply the answer by #10^3#.

#1*L=10^3*mL#. And #1*mL=10^-3*L#.

Thus #1.54xx10^-10*Lxx10^3*mL*L^-1# #=#

#1.54xx10^-7*mL#
