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
Subtract 4.66×10^−5−7.34×10^−7 (1 point)
