What is the rule for significant figures when adding or subtracting decimals?
When adding and/or subtracting, your answer can only show as many decimal places as the measurement having the fewest number in the decimal places.
How does the decimal move from kolometers to meters?
If you are transferring a measurement from kilometres to metres then you times it by 1000 (or just moves the decimal point 3 places to the right).
What is the diameter if the circumference is 70?
diameter = 70/pi = 22.282 units of measurement rounded to 3 decimal places
In an addition problem the answer should have the same number of significant figures as the measurement with the most decimal places true or false?
False
In an addition problem should the answer have the same number of significant figures as the measurement with the most decimal places?
This is false. (I got this question on my test.)
How can you tell the precision of measurement?
The precision of a measurement can be determined by looking at the number of decimal places in the measurement. The more decimal places, the more precise the measurement. Additionally, if a measuring tool is capable of measuring smaller increments, it can provide a more precise measurement.
How do you determine which measurement is precise?
Choose the one with the most decimal places.

How can you tell the precision of a measurement?
The precision of a measurement can be determined by the number of significant figures or decimal places in the measured value. A measurement with more significant figures or decimal places is considered more precise. Additionally, repeated measurements that yield similar results indicate a higher level of precision.
What lab equipment is used for weighing out 120g of sodium chloride?
That depends on whether you need an exact amount or if it only needs to be approximate. You would need a weighing dish, a spatuala and a top pan balance to atleast 1 decimal place. If its in excess less accuracy is needed so less decimal places on the balance. Three decimals is good for exact measurements. N.B By Top pan balance I just mean a digital scale with the appropriate amount of decimal places.
What is the centigram balance 2.62114g?
The centigram balance measures masses in grams to two decimal places. It shows that the mass is 2.62 grams.
How does the decimal move from kolometers to meters?
If you are transferring a measurement from kilometres to metres then you times it by 1000 (or just moves the decimal point 3 places to the right).
What is the sum of 2.7g and 2.47g exspressed in the correct number of significant digits?
5.2g When you add or subtract using significant figures, you round the answer to the fewest number of decimal places as the measurement with the fewest decimal places.
What is the circumfernce of a circle if the diameter is 85?
Circumference = pi*85 = 267.035 units of measurement to 3 decimal places
What is the circumference if the diameter is 70?
diameter = 70/pi = 22.282 units of measurement rounded to 3 decimal places
In an addition problem the answer should have the same number of significant figures as the measurement with the most decimal places.?
The statement is false.
