Sagot :

To express 9.27 million in scientific notation, we need to understand what "million" means.

1 million is equal to [tex]\(10^6\)[/tex].

Thus, 9.27 million can be written as:
[tex]\[ 9.27 \times 1,000,000 \][/tex]

Since 1,000,000 is [tex]\(10^6\)[/tex], we can rewrite the expression as:
[tex]\[ 9.27 \times 10^6 \][/tex]

Therefore, the scientific notation for 9.27 million is:
[tex]\[ \boxed{9.27 \times 10^6} \][/tex]

So the correct answer is:
[tex]\[ \text{C. } 9.27 \cdot 10^6 \][/tex]
