6.25\cdot10^{6}\ -4.73\cdot10^{6} use scientific notation to 2 decimal places

1 answer

To perform the operation \(6.25 \cdot 10^{6} - 4.73 \cdot 10^{6}\), we first recognize that both numbers are in scientific notation and have the same exponent. We can directly subtract the coefficients:

\[ (6.25 - 4.73) \cdot 10^{6} = 1.52 \cdot 10^{6} \]

Now, we need to express the result in scientific notation and round it to 2 decimal places.

The final answer is:

\[ 1.52 \cdot 10^{6} \]
