Answer 2

I think it's 2.5

Explanation:

Since the Chilean earthquake was 9.5 and Haiti was 7.0 the just subtract from the 9.5 to get the greater. Obviously a 9.5 on the Richter scale is going to do way more damage either way. I apologize if I'm wrong, bit I think it's 2.5 (If not that selection choose 2) Have a great day loves!! <3
