1. **State the problem:** Max starts with $9.89236 \times 10^{923738393930237303939227837338388}$ candy bars and gives away $5.35 \times 10^{8227383738389272}$ candy bars. We need to find how many candy bars Max has left. 2. **Understand the problem:** When subtracting numbers in scientific notation, if the exponents differ greatly, the smaller number is negligible compared to the larger number. 3. **Compare exponents:** The initial amount has exponent $923738393930237303939227837338388$, and the amount given away has exponent $8227383738389272$. 4. Since $923738393930237303939227837338388 \gg 8227383738389272$, the number given away is extremely small compared to the initial amount. 5. **Therefore, the subtraction:** $$9.89236 \times 10^{923738393930237303939227837338388} - 5.35 \times 10^{8227383738389272} \approx 9.89236 \times 10^{923738393930237303939227837338388}$$ 6. **Final answer:** Max has approximately $9.89236 \times 10^{923738393930237303939227837338388}$ candy bars left.
