The value of the addition operation is 2.6 * 10^-5
How to add the numbers/expressions?
The numbers are given as:
4 x 10−6 and 2.2 x 10−5
Express as sum
4 x 10^−6 + 2.2 x 10^−5
Express 10^-6 as 10^-5 * 10^-1
So, we have:
4 x 10^−5 x 10^−1 + 2.2 x 10^−5
Factor out 10^−5
10^−5( 4 x 10^−1 + 2.2)
Express 10^-1 as 0.1
10^−5(4 x 0.1 + 2.2)
This gives
10^−5(0.4 + 2.2)
Evaluate the sum
10^−5(2.6)
Express as products
2.6 * 10^-5
Hence, the value of the addition operation is 2.6 * 10^-5
