Question

Ronald said that (8.0 × 107) + (6.2 × 103) = 14.2 x 1010. Amy added the numbers too and said the sum was 8.00062 × 107. Ronald then added the numbers a second time and came up with his original result. Whose solution is correct? Ronald is correct because 80,000,000 + 6,200 = 142,000,000,000.
Yes No B
Amy is correct because adding the decimals and then adding the exponents is not the correct procedure for adding numbers in scientific notation.

Yes No C
Amy is correct because 6.2 × 103 is a much smaller number than 8.0 × 107, so the sum of the two numbers cannot be as large as a decimal times 1010.

Yes No D
Ronald is correct because when you add the exponents in 107 and 103, you get 1010.
