Question

Perform the following operation

and express the answer in
scientific notation.
3.4000x 10-6 +5.7000x 10-3

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

3.4000x 10-6 +5.7000x 10-3

`3.4000 * {10}^( - 6) = 3.4 * {10}^( - 6)`

`5.7000 * {10}^( - 3) = 5700 * {10}^( - 6)`

now we can add them

`3.4 + 5700 = 5703.4 \\ = 5703.4 * {10}^( - 6)`

`= 5.7034 * {10}^( - 3)`
