To find the area of a Canadian football field given that it is 3,350 square yards larger than an American football field, we can represent the area of the American football field as \( A \) (in square yards). Then the area of the Canadian football field \( C \) can be expressed as:
\[ C = A + 3350 \]
If we know the area of the American football field is \( 6.4 \times 10^3 \) square yards, we can substitute that value into the equation:
\[ C = 6.4 \times 10^3 + 3350 \]
Next, we need to convert \( 3350 \) into scientific notation to perform the addition more easily.
\[ 3350 = 3.35 \times 10^3 \]
Now we can add the two areas together:
\[ C = (6.4 \times 10^3) + (3.35 \times 10^3) = (6.4 + 3.35) \times 10^3 = 9.75 \times 10^3 \]
Thus, the area of a Canadian football field is:
\[ \boxed{9.75 \times 10^3} , \text{square yards} \]
