Step 1: Adjust the smaller exponent to match the larger exponent by moving the decimal point.
Step 2: Change the coefficient on the smaller exponent term.
Step 3: Add the coefficients.
Step 4: Keep the same exponent to simplify.
Step 5: The final answer in Scientific Notation will be 4.64871 x 10^7.
Fill in the blanks with the correct steps for solving: (3.71x10^5) + (4.65x10^7) (5 points)
