To subtract the two numbers in scientific notation, you should first ensure they are in the same form. In this case, both numbers are already in scientific notation with the same exponent (10^6).

You can simply subtract the coefficients:

\[
(9.7 - 2.5) \times 10^6 = 7.2 \times 10^6
\]

So, the result of \( (9.7 \times 10^6) - (2.5 \times 10^6) \) is:

\[
7.2 \times 10^6
\]
