To subtract two numbers in scientific notation, we need to make sure that the exponents of the numbers are the same. We can achieve this by converting both numbers to the same power of 10.
Given the numbers:
4.82 × 10^6
4.82 × 10^12
We can express these two numbers with the same exponent, such as 10^12.
To convert 4.82 × 10^6 to 10^12, we need to multiply it by 10^(12-6) = 10^6:
4.82 × 10^6 = 4.82 × 10^(12-6) = 4.82 × 10^6 = 4.82 × 10^12
Therefore, the subtraction in scientific notation can be written as:
4.82 × 10^6 - 4.82 × 10^12 = 0
So the result of the subtraction in scientific notation is 0.

wrong
I apologize for the mistake. Let's correct it.
To subtract the numbers in scientific notation, we need to have the same exponent.
4.82 × 10^6 - 4.82 × 10^12 can be written as:
(4.82 - 4.82) × 10^6
Since the subtraction of the coefficients (4.82 - 4.82) is 0, the result can be expressed in scientific notation as:
0 × 10^6
Simplifying further, we have:
0 × 10^6 = 0
Therefore, the result of the subtraction in scientific notation is 0.
