A mobile phone holds 1.28×10^11 bytes of storage. You can also pay more money to get an additional 384,000,000,000 bytes. How much storage would your phone have if you buy the additional bytes? The answer should be in scientific notation.(1 point)
To calculate the total storage of the phone if you buy the additional bytes, you need to add the additional bytes to the current storage.
1.28×10^11 bytes + 3.84×10^11 bytes = 5.12×10^11 bytes
Therefore, your phone would have 5.12×10^11 bytes of storage if you buy the additional bytes.
To determine the total storage after buying the additional bytes, we need to add the original storage capacity with the additional bytes:
Original storage capacity = 1.28 × 10^11 bytes
Additional bytes = 384,000,000,000 bytes
Total storage capacity = Original storage capacity + Additional bytes
Total storage capacity = 1.28 × 10^11 bytes + 3.84 × 10^11 bytes
Simplifying the expression, we add the numbers while keeping the exponent the same:
Total storage capacity = (1.28 + 3.84) × 10^11 bytes
Total storage capacity = 5.12 × 10^11 bytes
Therefore, if you buy the additional bytes, your phone would have a storage capacity of 5.12 × 10^11 bytes.
To get the total storage of your phone after buying the additional bytes, you need to add the current storage to the additional storage.
Given:
Current storage = 1.28×10^11 bytes
Additional storage = 384,000,000,000 bytes
To add the storage, you simply sum up the two quantities:
Total storage = Current storage + Additional storage
Total storage = 1.28×10^11 bytes + 384,000,000,000 bytes
Total storage = 385,280,000,000 bytes
To express this value in scientific notation, we can represent it as:
Total storage = 3.8528×10^11 bytes
So, your phone would have a total storage of 3.8528×10^11 bytes if you buy the additional bytes.
