Final answer:

Scientific notation is a way to express large or small numbers using the form [N × 10^n]. To solve the given equation, we convert the exponents of 10 to the same value.

Step-by-step explanation:

In scientific notation, we convert numbers into the form [N × 10^n] where N is a number between 1 and 10, and n is an integer representing the exponent of 10. To solve the given equation in scientific notation 3600 - 6.3 - 10², we need to convert the exponents to the same value. This can be done by either changing 10² to 10³ or changing 6.3 to 0.0063.

For example:

(6.923 × 10^-3) - (0.8756 × 10^-3) = (6.923 - 0.8756) × 10^-3

or

(69.23 × 10^-4) (8.756 × 10^-4) = (69.23 - 8.756) × 10^-4
