To find the area of a Canadian football field, we need to add 3,350 square yards to the area of an American football field.
Area of Canadian football field = Area of American football field + 3,350 square yards
Given that the area of an American football field is 6.4x10^3 square yards, we can write this as:
Area of Canadian football field = 6.4x10^3 + 3,350
To perform the addition, we need to convert 3,350 into scientific notation. 3,350 in scientific notation is 3.35x10^3.
So, the area of a Canadian football field is:
Area of Canadian football field = 6.4x10^3 + 3.35x10^3
Performing the addition gives us:
Area of Canadian football field = 9.75x10^3
Therefore, the area of a Canadian football field is 9.75x10^3 square yards.
An American football field has an area of 6.4x10^3 square yards. A Canadian football field is 3,350 square yards larger. What is the are of a Canadian football field? Write your answer in scientific notation to 2 decimal places.
