I got three THINGS WRONG.
1: 5.9 x 10^5
2: 1.7 x 10^-1
3: 3.04 x 10^4
4: 9.75
5: 0.015
1: 5.9 x 10^5
2: 1.7 x 10^-1
3: 3.04 x 10^4
4: 9.75
5: 0.015
Apologies for the incorrect responses. Let's correct them:
1) The combined mass of the two skyscrapers is 5.9 x 10^5 tons.
2) The total length of the two insects is 1.7 x 10^0 inches (which can be simplified to simply 1.7 inches).
3) The sum of 6.3 x 10^3 and 2.41 x 10^4 is 3.04 x 10^4.
4) No information was provided, so it's unclear what "9.75" refers to.
5) The thickness of a fingernail is indeed 0.015 inches.
1) The combined mass of the two skyscrapers is 5.9 x 10^5 tons.
