In this problem, you will practice adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing numbers written in scientific notation. For each part use the following numbers: 3.2x10^4 1.95x10^6 8.03x10^-8 2.56x10^-2 4.82x10^12. Choose one of the scientific numbers from the list and add it to 32.8. Show your work

1 answer

Let's choose the number 3.2x10^4 and add it to 32.8:

3.2x10^4 + 32.8

First, let's convert 32.8 into scientific notation:
32.8 = 3.28x10^1

Now we can add the numbers:
3.2x10^4 + 3.28x10^1 = 3.2x10^4 + 0.328x10^4
= 3.528x10^4

Therefore, when we add 3.2x10^4 to 32.8, we get 3.528x10^4.
