If your problem is (4.2*10^5)+(5.3*10^5), it would be 
420000 + 530000
950000

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two expressions are [tex]4.2\times 10^{5}[/tex] and [tex]5.3\times 10^{5}[/tex]

We have to find the total of these two terms.

[tex](4.2\times 10^{5}[/tex] + [tex]5.3\times 10^{5})[/tex]

Now we take out [tex]10^{5}[/tex] as a common term.

[tex]10^{5}(4.2+5.3)[/tex]

= [tex]9.5\times 10^{5}[/tex]

Therefore, Option C. will be the answer.
