Q. Subtract. Write your answer in scientific notation.\newline(6×103)(2.59×103)(6 \times 10^3) - (2.59 \times 10^3)\newlineChoices:\newline(A) 3.41×1003.41 \times 10^0\newline(B) 3.41×1093.41 \times 10^9\newline(C) 3.41×1033.41 \times 10^3\newline(D) 3.41×1063.41 \times 10^6
  1. Simplify Expression: We have the following expression to simplify:\newline(6×103)(2.59×103)(6 \times 10^3) - (2.59 \times 10^3)\newlineSince the powers of 1010 are the same, we can directly subtract the coefficients.\newlineWhat is 62.596 - 2.59?\newline62.59=3.416 - 2.59 = 3.41
  2. Subtract Coefficients: Write the answer in scientific notation.\newlineSince we subtracted the coefficients and the power of 1010 remains the same, we can write the result as:\newline3.41×1033.41 \times 10^3
  3. Write in Scientific Notation: Choose the equivalent expression for (6×103)(2.59×103)(6 \times 10^3) - (2.59 \times 10^3).(6×103)(2.59×103)=3.41×103(6 \times 10^3) - (2.59 \times 10^3) = 3.41 \times 10^3So, the answer in scientific notation is 3.41×1033.41 \times 10^3.
