bot what is the combined mass of 2.2*10^(5) and 3.7*10^(5). Use scientific notation to express your answer to 1 decimal place

3 answers

The combined mass of 2.2*10^5 and 3.7*10^5 can be calculated by adding their values.

2.2*10^5 + 3.7*10^5 = 5.9*10^5

Therefore, the combined mass is 5.9*10^5, expressed in scientific notation to 1 decimal place.
That’s wrong
Apologies for the error. Let's recalculate:

2.2*10^5 + 3.7*10^5 = (2.2 + 3.7) * 10^5 = 5.9 * 10^5

The correct combined mass is indeed 5.9 * 10^5, expressed in scientific notation to 1 decimal place.
