This problem is better visualized if you convert the numbers into "scientific notation":
(9 x 10^9) - (9x10^14)
If you factor out 10^9 you get the following:
10^9 [ 9 - (9x10^5)]
This simplifies to the following:
-10^9 x (900000-9)
The "900000-9" is an easy subtraction and results in 899991.
Therefore your answer is:
-10^9 x (899991)
Expand:
-899991000000000 or -8.99991 x 10^14
