Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Expression [tex]1217+(4.1\times 10^3)[/tex]

To find : After converting the following numbers into scientific notation, solve the problem ?

Solution :

Expression [tex]1217+(4.1\times 10^3)[/tex]

Re-write 1217 by multiplying and divide by 1000 to convert into decimal,

[tex]=\frac{1217\times 1000}{1000}+(4.1\times 10^3)[/tex]

[tex]=1.217\times 10^3+(4.1\times 10^3)[/tex]

[tex]=(1.217+4.1)\times 10^3[/tex]

[tex]=5.317\times 10^3[/tex]

Therefore, in scientific notation [tex]1217+(4.1\times 10^3)=5.317\times 10^3[/tex]
