What is the sum of 6.3x10^3 and 2.41x10^4? Use scientific notation to express your answer
To add the two numbers in scientific notation, we need to align the decimal points by adjusting the exponents.
The first number, 6.3x10^3, can be written as 0.63x10^4 by moving the decimal point one place to the left.
Now we can add the two numbers:
0.63x10^4 + 2.41x10^4 = 3.04x10^4
So the sum of 6.3x10^3 and 2.41x10^4 in scientific notation is 3.04x10^4.
