Calculate 6.25×10^6−4.73×10^6 . Express your answer in scientific notation to 2 decimal places. (1 point)

Answer 1

To calculate \( 6.25 \times 10^6 - 4.73 \times 10^6 \):

1. Since both terms have the same power of ten, we can subtract their coefficients directly:

\[ (6.25 - 4.73) \times 10^6 \]

2. Now, perform the subtraction of the coefficients:

\[ 6.25 - 4.73 = 1.52 \]

3. Therefore, we can rewrite the expression as:

\[ 1.52 \times 10^6 \]

4. The final result, expressed in scientific notation to two decimal places, is:

\[ \boxed{1.52 \times 10^6} \]
