Answer:

6.305

Explanation:

Given

6 * 10° + 3 * 10^-1 + 5 * 10^-3

Required

Solve the expression

6 * 10° + 3 * 10^-1 + 5 * 10^-3

[Express 10° as 1]

So, we have:

= 6 * 1 + 3 * 10^-1 + 5 * 10^-3

= 6 + 3 * 10^-1 + 5 * 10^-3

Express the exponents as fraction.

= 6 + 3 * ⅒ + 5 * 1/10³

= 6 + 3 * ⅒ + 5 *1/1000

= 6 + 3/10 + 5/1000

Convert fractions to decimals

= 6 + 0.3 + 0.005

= 6.305

Hence, the result of the expression is 6.305
