To add the numbers \(6.3 \times 10^3\) and \(2.41 \times 10^4\), we first need to express both numbers in the same power of ten. We can convert \(2.41 \times 10^4\) to \(10^3\):

\[
2.41 \times 10^4 = 24.1 \times 10^3
\]

Now we can add \(6.3 \times 10^3\) and \(24.1 \times 10^3\):

\[
6.3 \times 10^3 + 24.1 \times 10^3 = (6.3 + 24.1) \times 10^3 = 30.4 \times 10^3
\]

Finally, we can express this in standard scientific notation:

\[
30.4 \times 10^3 = 3.04 \times 10^4
\]

Thus, the final result is:

\[
\boxed{3.04 \times 10^4}
\]
