Solve (7.59*10^-2)-(2.32*10^-2)

$$( 7.59 \times 10 ^ { - 2 } ) - ( 2.32 \times 10 ^ { - 2 } )$$

Evaluate

$$0.0527$$

Solution Steps

Calculate 10 to the power of -2 and get \frac{1}{100}.

$$7.59\times \frac{1}{100}-2.32\times 10^{-2}$$

Multiply 7.59 and \frac{1}{100} to get \frac{759}{10000}.

$$\frac{759}{10000}-2.32\times 10^{-2}$$

Calculate 10 to the power of -2 and get \frac{1}{100}.

$$\frac{759}{10000}-2.32\times \frac{1}{100}$$

Multiply 2.32 and \frac{1}{100} to get \frac{29}{1250}.

$$\frac{759}{10000}-\frac{29}{1250}$$

Subtract \frac{29}{1250} from \frac{759}{10000} to get \frac{527}{10000}.

$$\frac{527}{10000}$$

Factor

$$\frac{17 \cdot 31}{2 ^ {4} \cdot 5 ^ {4}} = 0.0527$$
