Answer:

a.) The sum of the weights of the two in insects is 0.0031 grams. (0.0031 grams)

b.) The fly is 0.0013 grams heavier than the gnat. (0.0013 grams)

Step-by-step explanation:

2.2 * 10^-3 = 2.2 * 1/1000 which is 2.2/1000.

9 * 10^-4 = 9 * 1/10000 = 9/10000

To add 9/10000 to 2.2/1000 we have to find the common denominator, which will be 10000.

So we do:

2.2/1000 * 10/10 = 22/10000

9/10000 + 22/10000 = 31/10000 = 0.0031.

The sum of the weights of the two in insects is 0.0031 grams.

To find how much heavier the fly is than the gnat we do:

22/10000 - 9/10000 = 13/10000 = 0.0013

The fly is 0.0013 grams heavier than the gnat.
