Fill in the blanks with the correct steps for solving: (3.71×105)+(4.65×107)(5 points)Step 1: to get the exponents the same for adding in Scientific Notation.Step 2: to change the coefficient on the term that the exponent was changed.Step 3: the coefficients.Step 4: the exponents to simplify.Step 5: is the final answer in Scientific Notation.
Step 1: Rewrite both numbers in scientific notation by moving the decimal point until there is only one non-zero digit to the left of it.
(3.71 × 10^5) + (4.65 × 10^7)
Step 2: Change the coefficient on the term with the lower exponent to match the exponent of the other term.
(3.71 × 10^5) + (46.5 × 10^6)
Step 3: Add the coefficients.
(3.71 + 46.5 × 10^6)
Step 4: Keep the exponents unchanged.
(3.71 + 46.5) × 10^6
Step 5: Simplify the sum of the coefficients.
50.21 × 10^6
Step 6: Write the final answer in scientific notation by moving the decimal point until there is only one non-zero digit to the left of it.
5.021 × 10^7

I apologize for the confusion in my previous response. Let me correct the steps:
Step 1: Rewrite both numbers in scientific notation by moving the decimal point until there is only one non-zero digit to the left of it.
(3.71 × 10^5) + (4.65 × 10^7)
Step 2: Change the coefficients to the same power of 10.
(0.0371 × 10^7) + (4.65 × 10^7)
Step 3: Add the coefficients.
(0.0371 + 4.65) × 10^7
Step 4: Simplify the sum of the coefficients.
4.6871 × 10^7
Step 5: Write the final answer in scientific notation by moving the decimal point until there is only one non-zero digit to the left of it.
4.6871 × 10^7
Once again, I apologize for the error in my previous response.
