Step-by-step explanation:

The question is given below as


7.8*10^7+9.9*10^7

Step 1:

Factorise the expression above, we will have


\begin{gathered} 7.8*10^7+9.9*10^7 \\ (7.8+9.9)*10^7 \\ 17.7*10^7 \\ 1.77*10^1*10^7 \\ 1.77*10^(1+7) \\ 1.77*10^8 \end{gathered}

Hence,

The final answer in scientific notation is


1.77*10^8

The second part of the question is given below as


\begin{gathered} 3.1*10^6*2.7*10^(-2) \\ 3.1*2.7*10^6*10^(-2) \\ 8.37*10^(6+(-2)) \\ 8.37*10^(6-2) \\ 8.37*10^4 \end{gathered}

Hence,

The final answer is scientific notation is


8.37*10^4
