To add 7.3×10^7 and 1.8×10^7, you need to add the numerical parts and keep the exponential part the same.
Here's how to do it:
1. Add the numerical parts: 7.3 + 1.8 = 9.1.
2. Keep the exponential part the same: Since both numbers have the same exponential part (10^7), you can just keep it as 10^7.
Putting it together, the correct sum is 9.1×10^7.
