Add or subtract. Write your answer in scientific notation. 4.2 x 10^6 − 1.2 x 10^5 − 2.5 x 10^5
3.3 x 10^9 + 2.6 x 10^9 + 7.7 x 10^8
8.0 x 10^4 − 3.4 x 10^4 − 1.2 x 10^3

1. 38.3 x 10^5

2. 6.67 x 10^9

3. 4.48 x 10^4

Step-by-step explanation:

4.2 X 10 ^6 - 1.2 X 10^5 - 2.5 x 10^5

For the above question, we need to make the exponents equal

=> 42 x 10^5  -  1.2 x 10^5  -  2.5 x  10^5

SInce, all the exponents are equal, we can now add and subtract the normally.

=> (42 - 1.2 -2.5) x 10^5

=> (42 - 3.7) x 10^5

=> 38.3 x  10^5

So, the answer to the 1st question is 38.3 x 10^5

Next question:

=> 3.3 x 10^9 + 2.6 x 10^9 +7.7 x 10^8

=>  we need to make the exponents equal

=> 3.3 x 10^9 + 2.6 x 10^9 + .77 x 10^9

=> All the exponents are equal, we can now add and subtract the normally.

=> (3.3 + 2.6 + .77) x 10^9

=> 6.67 x 10^9

=> So the answer to the 2nd question is 6.67 x 10^9

Next question,

=> 8 X 10^4 - 3.4 x 10^4  - 1.2 x 10^3

=> we need to make the exponents equal

=> 8 x 10^4 - 3.4 x 10^4 - .12 x 10^4

=> All the exponents are equal, we can now add and subtract the normally.

=> (8 - 3.4 - .12) x 10^4

=> 4.48 x 10^4

=> So the answer to the 3rd question is 4.48 x 10^4
