1.95 ✕ 10v6 add to 32.8 show your work

1 answer

To add 1.95 * 10^6 to 32.8, you need to convert the numbers to the same exponent.

1.95 * 10^6 can be written as 195 * 10^4 (moving the decimal place four places to the left).

So,
195 * 10^4 + 32.8 = 195 * 10^4 + 32.8 * 10^0 (since 32.8 is already in the form of 10^0)

To add these two numbers, the exponents should be the same. Therefore, we need to convert 32.8 to the form of 10^4.

32.8 * 10^0 can be written as 0.328 * 10^1 (moving the decimal place one place to the left).

Now we can add the two numbers:
195 * 10^4 + 0.328 * 10^1 = 195 * 10^4 + 0.328 * 10^4 (since the exponents are the same)

To add these two numbers, we can simply add their coefficients:
195 + 0.328 = 195.328

So, 1.95 * 10^6 + 32.8 = 195.328 * 10^4

Therefore, the final answer is 195.328 * 10^4.
