Step 1: Rewrite the second number as 0.465 x 10^8 to get the exponents the same for adding in Scientific Notation.

Step 2: Multiply 0.465 by 10 to change the coefficient on the term that the exponent was changed.

Step 3: Add the coefficients. 3.71 + 0.465 = 4.175

Step 4: Keep the exponent the same. 10^5 + 10^8 = 10^8

Step 5: The final answer is 4.175 x 10^8

Step 1: Rewrite the second number as 46.5 x 10^6 to get the exponents the same for adding in Scientific Notation.

Step 2: Multiply 46.5 by 100 to change the coefficient on the term that the exponent was changed.

Step 3: Add the coefficients. 3.71 + 46.5 = 50.21

Step 4: Keep the exponent the same. 10^5 + 10^6 = 10^6

Step 5: The final answer is 50.21 x 10^6.

Apologies for the mistake. Let me provide you with the correct steps for solving (3.71 × 10^5) + (4.65 x 10^7):

Step 1: Rewrite the second number in scientific notation to make the exponents match. This gives us (3.71 × 10^5) + (0.465 × 10^8).

Step 2: Adjust the coefficient to match the exponent. Multiply 0.465 by 10^3 to get 465.

Step 3: Add the coefficients. 3.71 + 465 = 468.71.

Step 4: Keep the exponent the same. 10^5.

Step 5: The final answer is 468.71 x 10^5.
