Answer:
[tex]6.47\times10^{-4}[/tex]Explanation:
To evaluate the difference:
[tex]0.00067-2.3\times10^{-5}[/tex]First, rewrite the expression in the form below:
[tex]=67\times10^{-5}-2.3\times10^{-5}[/tex]Next, factor out the powers of 10.
[tex]\begin{gathered} =10^{-5}(67-2.3) \\ =10^{-5}(64.7) \\ =64.7\times10^{-5} \\ =6.47\times10^1\times10^{-5} \\ =6.47\times10^1^{-5} \\ =6.47\times10^{-4} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the difference written in scientific notation is:
[tex]6.47\times10^{-4}[/tex]Note: A number is in scientific notation if it is expressed as a product of a number (between 1 and 10) and a power of 10.
