For this case we must find the difference of the following expressions:


0.00067\\2.3 * 10 ^ {- 5}

For the second expression we must run the decimal 5 times to the left, because the exponent is negative, that is:


0.000023

We subtract:


0.00067-0.000023 = 0.000647

Represented in scientific notation we have:


6.47 * 10 ^ {- 4}

Option A
