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 determine the total storage after buying the additional bytes, we need to add the original storage to the additional storage. First, convert the additional storage into scientific notation to match the format of the original storage.
Additional storage in scientific notation:
384,000,000,000 bytes = 3.84 × 10^11 bytes
Now, add the original storage to the additional storage:
1.28 × 10^11 bytes (original storage) + 3.84 × 10^11 bytes (additional storage) = (1.28 + 3.84) × 10^11 bytes
= 5.12 × 10^11 bytes
So after purchasing the additional storage, you would have 5.12 × 10^11 bytes of storage on your phone. The correct answer in scientific notation is:
5.12×10^11
