This is scientific notation for 0.00000000001
multiplying a number by 10 is just adding a 0 at the end of it so 10 to the power of 10, i.e:10 with ten 0s at the end of it = 100000000000.Scientific notation uses the - sign to reverse this so that instead of 100000000000 you have 0.00000000001
10 to the 8th power divided by 10 to the 7th power is 10
10 to the fourth power.
Some prefixes, which you use with any unit, are:Tera (10 to the power 12)Giga (10 to the power 9)Mega (10 to the power 6)Kilo (10 to the power 3)Hekto (10 to the power 2)Deka (10 to the power 1)Deci (10 to the power -1)Centi (10 to the power -2)Milli (10 to the power -3)Micro (10 to the power -6)Nano (10 to the power -9)Pico (10 to the power -12)You can find a more complete list at the Wikipedia, in the article "SI prefixes".
When you divide numbers with the same base raised to different exponents, you subtract the exponents. In this case, 10 to the power of 8 divided by 10 to the power of 6 is equal to 10^(8-6) which simplifies to 10^2. Therefore, the result is 100.
