Round a number to a quantity of significant figures that you provide. Enter whole numbers, real numbers, scientific notation or e notation.
First multiply both the numbers. 877 * 0.345 = 302.565 As both the taken numbers have 3 significant digits, so we will round off our answer. Rounding off to 3 significant figures we get 303. Now expressing it in scientific notation: 3.03 * 10^2 * means multiply , ^ means raised to the power
The value in scientific notation is 8.624 x 10³. Shift 3 decimal places to the left to obtain that value. Rounding that value to 3 sig fig implies that we need to round that value to the nearest hundredths. Hence, we get: 8.62 x 103
To three significant figure, 483.54 becomes 484. The rule when rounding off numbers is "If the first figure to be discarded is 5 or more then the previous figure is increased by 1". Expressed in Scientific Notation, 484 becomes 4.84 x 102.
