{ \boxed{ \red{ \tt{2.007 * {10}^(2)}}}}

Explanation:


{ \blue{ \tt{(7 * {10}^(5)) + (2 * {10}^(2))}}}

To add or subtract numbers in sciemtific notations, the power of 10 that exponent must be same. After that coefficient are added or subtracted.

Let us shift the exponent from 5 to 2 in 7×10^5.


{ \blue{ \tt{(0.7 * {10}^(4))}}}


{ \blue{ \tt{(0.07 * {10}^(3))}}}


{ \blue{ \tt{(0.007 * {10}^(2) )}}}

then,


{ \blue{ \tt{(0.007 + 2) {10}^(2) }}}


{ \blue{ \tt{2.007 * {10}^(2)}}}
