Answer:

[tex]5.4*10^{5}-1.2*10^{3}=5.388*10^{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can rewrite [tex]1.2*10^{3}[/tex] as [tex]0.012*10^{5}[/tex].

Now, let's subtract each term:

[tex]5.4*10^{5}-0.012*10^{5}[/tex]

we can take a common factor.

[tex](5.4-0.012)*10^{5}=5.388*10^{5}[/tex]

Therefore the answer is  [tex]5.388*10^{5}[/tex].

I hope it helps you!
