#4.1xx10^7#

Explanation:

Multiply a number by 1 and you do not change its value. The thing is; 1 comes in many forms:

#3-2"; "4/4"; " sqrt5/sqrt5"; " 10/10"; "10^7/10^7#

Multiply by 1 but in the form of #1=10^7/10^7# giving:

#41,000,000xx10^7/10^7#

Write this as:

#(41,000,000)/(10^7) xx10^7#

#4.1xx10^7#

This is exactly the same value we started with it is just that it looks different.
