Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To subtract these two numbers, we subtract their respective powers of 10 and then subtract their coefficients:

7.7790892759 x 10^8 - 1.077104669 x 10^8

Coefficient subtraction: 7.7790892759 - 1.077104669 = 6.7019846069

Power of 10 subtraction: 10^8 - 10^8 = 0

Therefore, the result of the subtraction is:

6.7019846069 x 10^0

Simplifying further:

6.7019846069 x 1

The final answer is:

6.7019846069

Answer 2

[AI-generated answer — Step-by-Step Bot]

To subtract the numbers 7.7790892759 x 10^8 and 1.077104669 x 10^8, we need to perform the subtraction separately for the coefficients and then subtract the exponents.

Step 1: Subtract the coefficients (numbers in front of the powers of 10):

7.7790892759 x 10^8 - 1.077104669 x 10^8
= (7.7790892759 - 1.077104669) x 10^8
= 6.7019846061 x 10^8

Step 2: Keep the exponent of 10 the same since we are subtracting numbers with the same power of 10.

Therefore, the result of the subtraction is 6.7019846061 x 10^8.

Answer 3

To subtract these two numbers in scientific notation, you need to first ensure that the exponents (the numbers after the "x 10^") are the same. In this case, they are already the same, so you can subtract the coefficients (the numbers before the "x 10^").

Now, let's subtract the coefficients:

7.7790892759 x 10^8 - 1.077104669 x 10^8

= (7.7790892759 - 1.077104669) x 10^8

= 6.7019846061 x 10^8

So, the result of the subtraction is 6.7019846061 x 10^8.
