What is the sum of 6.3x10^(3 )and 2.41x10^(4)? Use scientific notation to express your answer.
To add these numbers in scientific notation, we need to make sure that the exponents are the same.
1. Convert 6.3x10^3 to scientific notation with the same exponent as 2.41x10^4.
6.3x10^3 = 0.63x10^4
Now we can add the numbers:
0.63x10^4 + 2.41x10^4 = (0.63 + 2.41)x10^4 = 3.04x10^4
The sum is 3.04x10^4.
