An american football field has an area of 6.4x10^3 square yards. A Canadian football field is 3,350 square yards larger.
What is the area of a Canadian football field? Write the answer in scientific notation to 2 decimal places.
The area of the American football field is 6.4x10^3 square yards.
The Canadian football field is 3,350 square yards larger than the American football field.
To find the area of the Canadian football field, we need to add 3,350 square yards to 6.4x10^3 square yards.
The total area of the Canadian football field is 6.4x10^3 + 3,350 square yards.
= 9,750 square yards.
Writing this in scientific notation to 2 decimal places, we get:
9.75x10^3 square yards.
To find the area of the Canadian football field, we need to add the additional area to the area of the American football field.
Given:
Area of the American football field = 6.4x10^3 square yards
Additional area for the Canadian football field = 3,350 square yards
To calculate the area of the Canadian football field:
Area of Canadian football field = Area of American football field + Additional area
Area of Canadian football field = 6.4x10^3 + 3,350
Area of Canadian football field = 6.4x10^3 + 3.35x10^3 (since 3,350 can also be written as 3.35x10^3)
Now, add the two values together:
Area of Canadian football field = (6.4 + 3.35) x 10^3
Area of Canadian football field = 9.75 x 10^3
Therefore, the area of a Canadian football field is 9.75x10^3 square yards in scientific notation to 2 decimal places.
To find the area of the Canadian football field, we need to add the given area difference of 3,350 square yards to the area of the American football field.
First, let's convert the given area difference of 3,350 square yards to scientific notation.
3,350 = 3.35 x 10^3
Next, let's add the area difference to the area of the American football field.
6.4 x 10^3 + 3.35 x 10^3 = 9.75 x 10^3
Therefore, the area of the Canadian football field is 9.75 x 10^3 square yards.
