Calculate 6.25×106−4.73×106 . Express your answer in scientific notation to 2 decimal places

Answer 1

To subtract these numbers in scientific notation, we need to first ensure that the exponents are the same.

Given:

6.25 × 10^6

4.73 × 10^6

Since the exponents are the same (6), we can subtract the coefficients:

6.25 - 4.73 = 1.52

Then, we keep the exponent of 10 as 6.

Therefore, 6.25 × 10^6 − 4.73 × 10^6 is equal to 1.52 × 10^6 in scientific notation.
