To add two numbers in scientific notation, we first need to ensure that they have the same exponent. We can choose the numbers \(3.2 \times 10^4\) and \(1.95 \times 10^6\) for this example.
### Step 1: Write both numbers in standard form
1. **Convert \(3.2 \times 10^4\)** to standard form:
\[
3.2 \times 10^4 = 32000
\]
2. **Convert \(1.95 \times 10^6\)** to standard form:
\[
1.95 \times 10^6 = 1950000
\]
### Step 2: Make the exponents the same
We need to express \(3.2 \times 10^4\) in terms of \(10^6\):
\[
3.2 \times 10^4 = 3.2 \times 10^4 \times \frac{10^2}{10^2} = 3.2 \times 10^6 \times 10^{-2} = 0.032 \times 10^6
\]
### Step 3: Add the numbers
Now we can add:
\[
0.032 \times 10^6 + 1.95 \times 10^6 = (0.032 + 1.95) \times 10^6 = 1.982 \times 10^6
\]
### Step 4: Final Result
The sum of \(3.2 \times 10^4\) and \(1.95 \times 10^6\) is:
\[
1.982 \times 10^6
\]
This is the final answer!

\[

\]
2. **Convert \(1.95 \times 10^6\)** to standard form:
\[
1.95 \times 10^6 = 1950000
\]
### Step 2: Make the exponents the same
We need to express \(3.2 \times 10^4\) in terms of \(10^6\):
\[
3.2 \times 10^4 = 3.2 \times 10^4 \times \frac{10^2}{10^2} = 3.2 \times 10^6 \times 10^{-2} = 0.032 \times 10^6
\]
### Step 3: Add the numbers
Now we can add:
\[
0.032 \times 10^6 + 1.95 \times 10^6 = (0.032 + 1.95) \times 10^6 = 1.982 \times 10^6
\]
### Step 4: Final Result
The sum of \(3.2 \times 10^4\) and \(1.95 \times 10^6\) is:
\[
1.982 \times 10^6
\]
This is the final answer!

Let's double-check the calculation step-by-step for clarity.
We are adding:
1. \(3.2 \times 10^4\)
2. \(1.95 \times 10^6\)
### Step 1: Convert both numbers to the same exponent.
To add these numbers, we can express them in terms of \(10^6\).
1. Convert \(3.2 \times 10^4\):
\[
3.2 \times 10^4 = 3.2 \times 10^4 \times \frac{10^2}{10^2} = 3.2 \times 10^6 \times 10^{-2} = 0.032 \times 10^6
\]
2. We keep \(1.95 \times 10^6\) as is.
### Step 2: Now we can add them:
\[
0.032 \times 10^6 + 1.95 \times 10^6 = (0.032 + 1.95) \times 10^6
\]
\[
= 1.982 \times 10^6
\]
### Step 3: Result
So, the final answer is:
\[
1.982 \times 10^6
\]
Thus, the result is verified as correct. Thank you for your patience!
