Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To add these two numbers, we can rewrite the first number in standard decimal notation.

4.82 x 10^12 + 32.8

= 4,820,000,000,000 + 32.8

Now, we can perform the addition.

4,820,000,000,000 + 32.8 = 4,820,000,000,032.8

Answer 2

[AI-generated answer — Step-by-Step Bot]

To add the numbers 4.82 x 10^12 and 32.8, we need to first rewrite them in standard notation.

The number 4.82 x 10^12 can be written as 4,820,000,000,000 because 10^12 means we move the decimal point 12 places to the right.

So the addition problem becomes: 4,820,000,000,000 + 32.8.

Now we can add these two numbers:

4,820,000,000,000
+ 32.8

Therefore, the sum of 4.82 x 10^12 and 32.8 is 4,820,000,000,032.8.

Answer 3

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

To find the sum of 4.82 x 10^12 and 32.8, we need to ensure that both numbers are in the same form. In this case, we have 4.82 x 10^12, which is in scientific notation, and 32.8, which is in standard notation.

First, let's convert 32.8 to scientific notation. To do this, we count the number of decimal places from the original number until we have a single nonzero digit before the decimal point. In this case, we have 32.8, which means we need to move the decimal point one place to the left to get 3.28. Therefore, we can write 32.8 in scientific notation as 3.28 x 10^1.

Now that both numbers are written in scientific notation, we can add them. To add numbers in scientific notation, we only add the decimal part and keep the same exponent.

4.82 x 10^12 + 3.28 x 10^1 = (4.82 + 3.28) x 10^12

Adding the decimal parts, we get 8.1. Therefore, the sum is 8.1 x 10^12.

So, the sum of 4.82 x 10^12 and 32.8 is 8.1 x 10^12.
