The calculation would be 6.25 x 10^6 - 4.73 x 10^6 = 1.52 x 10^6.
its not.
Apologies for the confusion. Let's break down the calculation again.

To subtract numbers in scientific notation, we need to ensure that the exponents are the same. In this case, the exponents are both 6, so we can directly subtract the coefficients:

6.25 x 10^6 - 4.73 x 10^6 = (6.25 - 4.73) x 10^6 = 1.52 x 10^6

Therefore, the answer in scientific notation to 2 decimal places is 1.52 x 10^6.
