An American football field has an area of 6.4×103 square yards. A Canadian football field is 3,350 square yards larger. What is the area of a Canadian football field? Write your answer in scientific notation to 2 decimal places
The area of the Canadian football field can be calculated by adding the additional 3,350 square yards to the area of the American football field:
6.4 × 10^3 + 3.35 × 10^3 = 9.75 × 10^3
Therefore, the area of the Canadian football field is 9.75 × 10^3 square yards.
To find the area of the Canadian football field, we need to add the additional 3,350 square yards to the area of the American football field.
The area of the Canadian football field is:
6.4×10^3 square yards + 3,350 square yards.
Adding the areas, we get:
6.4×10^3 + 3,350 = 9.75×10^3 square yards.
Therefore, the area of the Canadian football field is 9.75×10^3 square yards.
To find the area of the Canadian football field, we need to add the additional 3,350 square yards to the area of the American football field.
Let's begin by finding the total area of the Canadian football field.
Area of Canadian football field = Area of American football field + Additional area
Additional area = 3,350 square yards
Area of American football field = 6.4×10^3 square yards
To add these two areas, we can simply calculate:
Area of Canadian football field = (6.4×10^3) + (3,350)
Now, let's add these two numbers:
Area of Canadian football field = 6.4×10^3 + 3,350
To perform this addition, we can rewrite 3,350 in scientific notation as well:
3,350 = 3.35×10^3
Now, we can calculate:
Area of Canadian football field = 6.4×10^3 + 3.35×10^3
Adding the terms with the same base (10), we get:
Area of Canadian football field = (6.4 + 3.35)×10^3
Simplifying the addition, we have:
Area of Canadian football field = 9.75×10^3
Therefore, the area of a Canadian football field in scientific notation to 2 decimal places is 9.75×10^3 square yards.
