To subtract the given numbers in scientific notation, we need to make sure the exponents are the same.

4.66 × 10^(-5) - 7.34 × 10^(-7) = (4.66 × 10^(-5)) - (0.734 × 10^(-6))

Since both numbers have the same base (10), we can subtract the coefficients and keep the same base and exponent.

= 4.66 × 10^(-5 - (-6))

= 4.66 × 10^(-5 + 6)

= 4.66 × 10^(1)

= 4.66 × 10

= 46.6
