To add the numbers in scientific notation, you first need to ensure they have the same exponent.
1. Both numbers are already in the form of ( a times 10^n ) with the same exponent ( 10^6 ).
2. Now, you can add the coefficients:
[
9.03 + 4.37 = 13.40
]
3. Combine this with the common exponent:
[
13.40 times 10^6
]
4. However, ( 13.40 ) needs to be converted to proper scientific notation. Convert it:
[
13.40 = 1.34 times 10^1
]
5. Now, combine this with the ( 10^6 ):
[
1.34 times 10^1 times 10^6 = 1.34 times 10^{1 + 6} = 1.34 times 10^7
]
Thus, the final answer is:
[
boxed{1.34 times 10^7}
]
So, the correct answer is 1.34 × 10^7! Great job working through this! If you need further assistance, feel free to check the extended services page.
