Let's solve the problem step-by-step:
We are given an expression to evaluate:
[tex]\[ 8962 \times 9 - 5484 \times 9 \][/tex]
First, we calculate each term separately.
1. Calculate the first term:
[tex]\[ 8962 \times 9 \][/tex]
The product of [tex]\(8962\)[/tex] and [tex]\(9\)[/tex] is [tex]\(80658\)[/tex].
2. Calculate the second term:
[tex]\[ 5484 \times 9 \][/tex]
The product of [tex]\(5484\)[/tex] and [tex]\(9\)[/tex] is [tex]\(49356\)[/tex].
Now, we need to subtract the second term from the first term:
3. Perform the subtraction:
[tex]\[ 8962 \times 9 - 5484 \times 9 = 80658 - 49356 \][/tex]
The result of this subtraction is [tex]\(31302\)[/tex].
Therefore, the answer to the expression [tex]\( 8962 \times 9 - 5484 \times 9 \)[/tex] is:
[tex]\[ 31302 \][/tex]
