Solution

Evaluating the given expression.
Given, $4.659 \times 10^{4} - 2.14 \times 10^{4}$
Solving the expression we can write,
$4.659 \times 10^{4} - 2.14 \times 10^{4} = 10^{4} (4.659 - 2.14)$
$= 10^{4} \times 2.519 = 2.519 \times 10^{4} \approx 2.52 \times 10^{4}$
Hence, the value of the given expression is $2.52 \times 10^{4}$ .
