When multiplying, the number of significant numbers in the answer should be the same as the fewest significant figures in the problem. Both 13.5 and 3.00 have three significant figures, so the answer will have three significant figures. 13.5 x 3.00 = 40.5 exactly (no need to round).
To determine the number of significant figures in the product of 2.8 and 10.5, we look at the number of significant figures in each number. The number 2.8 has 2 significant figures, and 10.5 has 3 significant figures. When multiplying, the result should be reported with the same number of significant figures as the factor with the least significant figures, which is 2. Therefore, the product of 2.8 x 10.5 should be expressed with 2 significant figures.
For 25600.0, shift 4 decimal places to the left. Then, 2.56 x 104 has 3 sig figs, which are rounded up "already".
To determine the number of significant figures in the answer to the calculation 65.25 m x 37.4 m, we look at the significant figures of each number. The number 65.25 m has four significant figures, while 37.4 m has three significant figures. The result should be reported with the least number of significant figures, which is three in this case. Therefore, the answer will have three significant figures.
Two of them.
6.5211 x 104 = 678.1944 678.1944 has 7 significant figures
Assuming that the number in question is 7.99*104, the answer is 3.
There are 5 significant digits in 78000. Which is the same as 7.8 x 104.
5 significant figures Each figure that contributes to the accuracy of a value is considered significant. So 2.9979 has 5 significant figures. The 10^8 does not contribute to the accuracy as it simply indicates the number of trailing zeroes (i.e. 299,790,000) that are simply a result of rounding from the actual value (299,792,458)
4.884 has four significant figures and 2.25 has three significant figures. 4.884 x 2.25 = 10.989 = 11.0 rounded to three significant figures. When multiplying or dividing, the result must have the same number of significant figures as the number in the problem with the fewest significant figures.
It has 5 significant figures - one trailing zero is significant.
The number 1.84 x 103 has three significant figures, 1.84. The 103 part of the number does not count when determining significant figures.
When multiplying, the number of significant numbers in the answer should be the same as the fewest significant figures in the problem. Both 13.5 and 3.00 have three significant figures, so the answer will have three significant figures. 13.5 x 3.00 = 40.5 exactly (no need to round).
