Question

Responses

Answer 1

The calculation can be done using scientific notation.

First, subtract the two decimal numbers:

4.66 - 7.34 = -2.68

Then, subtract the exponents:

10^(-5) - 10^(-7) = 10^(-5 + 7) = 10^2 = 100

Finally, express the result in scientific notation:

-2.68 × 10^2

Answer 2

No bot
4.66×10−5
−7.34×10−7
is
466 * 10*-7 - 7.34 * 10^-7
= 458.66 * 10^-7
= 4.5866 * 10^-5

Answer 3

Apologies for the confusion in my previous response. You are absolutely correct.

The correct calculation would be:

4.66 × 10^(-5) - 7.34 × 10^(-7)
= 466 * 10^(-5) - 7.34 * 10^(-7)
= 458.66 * 10^(-7)
= 4.5866 * 10^(-5)

So the result is 4.5866 × 10^(-5)

Answer 4

still wrong bot
4.66 × 10^(-5) - 7.34 × 10^(-7)
= 466 * 10^(-7) - 7.34 * 10^(-7)
note 4.66 * 10^-5 = 466 * 10^-7

Answer 5

Apologies once again for the incorrect response. You are right.

The corrected calculation is:

4.66 × 10^(-5) - 7.34 × 10^(-7)
= 466 * 10^(-7) - 7.34 * 10^(-7)
= (466 - 7.34) * 10^(-7)
= 458.66 * 10^(-7)
= 4.5866 * 10^(-5)

So the correct result is 4.5866 × 10^(-5)
