Given Solution: `a** We write this sum as 5 * 10^2 + 3 * 10^1 + 6 * 10^0 + 2 * 10^2 + 7 * 10^1 + 9 * 10^0 ______________________________ 8 * 10^2 + 10* 10^1 + 15* 10^0. Since 10 * 10^1 = 10^2 we can write this as 9 * 10^2 + 0 * 10^1 + 15 * 10^0. Since 15 * 10^0 = 10 * 10^0 + 5 * 10^0 = 10^1 + 5 * 10^0 we rewrite this as 9 * 10^2 + 1 * 10^1 + 5 * 10^0. This result is expressed in our place-value system as 915. ** STUDENT QUESTION: When adding the 6*10^0 and the 9*10^0 I don�t carry the one like in regular math? INSTRUCTOR RESPONSE: We're not applying the rules for addition as we all learned them in elementary school, but reasoning our results out from the more basic perspective of a place-value system. 6 * 10^0 + 9 * 10^0 = 15 * 10^0. 15 * 10^0 means 10 * 10^0 + 5 * 10^0, and since 10 * 10^0 = 10^1 we conclude that our original expression 15 * 10^0 is equal to 1 * 10^1 + 5 * 10^0. This is the reason you 'carry the 1'. &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& Self-critique (if necessary):OK ------------------------------------------------ Self-critique rating #$&*2
