The population of China is approximately 1.381x10^9, and the population of the US is approximately 3.23x10^8. About how many people live in both countries combined? Answer in scientific notation

1.704 x 10⁹ people

Step-by-step explanation:

    Population of China = 1.381 x 10⁹

    Population of US = 3.23 x 10⁸

Problem:

Number of people in both countries combined = ?

Solution

   To solve this problem, simply add them together;

Let us make the exponents the same for easy addition;

      Population of China = 1.381 x 10⁹ = 13.81 x 10⁸

      Poplation of US =  3.23 x 10⁸

Adding both:

                   (13.81 x 10⁸)  + (3.23 x 10⁸)

             ⇒ (13.81 + 3.23) x 10⁸

             ⇒ 17.04 x 10⁸

             ⇒ 1.704 x 10⁹

the y will be in still but your answer will be y x 3
