Answer:
(10^3 x 10^2) + 10^-3 is equal to 100,000.001.
Explanation:
10^3 x 10^2 = 10^(3+2) = 10^5
Next, we perform the multiplication:
10^5
Finally, we add the value of 10^-3:
10^5 + 10^-3
Now, we have two numbers in scientific notation. To add them, we need to make sure they have the same exponent.
10^5 can be written as 100,000 in standard notation.
10^-3 can be written as 0.001 in standard notation.
Now, we can add them:
100,000 + 0.001 = 100,000.001
