When multiplying and diving measured quantities the number of significant figures in the result should be equal to the number of significant figures in?
the measured quantity with the least number of significant figures. For example, if you multiply a quantity with 3 significant figures by a quantity with 2 significant figures, your result should have 2 significant figures.
What is the answer for 600x190 in significant figures?
600 * 190 = 114*10+3 in three significant figures, or 1.14 * 105 also in three significant figures.
How many significant figures are in 8.8462 - 3.745?
5.1011999999999995
How many significant figures in .550?
There are 3. The final zero, if not significant, should not be there and so it must be significant.
When finding significant figures for multiplication and division problems you go by the least number of?
significant figures in the original numbers used in the calculation. This means the final answer should be rounded to the same number of significant figures as the number with the least amount of significant figures.
If you multiplied 3774 m by 186 m how many significant figures should you report in your answer?
Three as three is the minimum found
How to find significant figures when multiplying numbers?
When multiplying numbers, count the number of significant figures in each number being multiplied. The result should have the same number of significant figures as the number with the fewest significant figures.
How do you multiply numbers while considering significant figures?
When multiplying numbers with significant figures, count the total number of significant figures in each number being multiplied. The result should have the same number of significant figures as the number with the fewest significant figures. Round the final answer to that number of significant figures.
Is 3.60 a greater decimal than 3.600?
3.60 and 3.600, as well as 3.600000000, are all identical in value.
What is the product of the number 1000 and the measurement 0.003 57 m expressed in the correct number of significant digits?
The product of 1000 and 0.00357 is 3.57. The result should have three significant figures as that is the lowest number of significant figures given in the original numbers being multiplied.
How many significant figures should you report for an object weighing exactly 15 grams?
When reporting a measurement of 15 grams, it has two significant figures, as both digits (1 and 5) are non-zero and contribute to its precision. Since the number is presented without any decimal point, it implies that the measurement is exact to the nearest whole gram. Therefore, you should report the weight of the object as having two significant figures.
When multiplying and dividing measured quantities the number of significant figures in the result should be equal to the number of significant figures in what?
The number of significant figures should be equal to the significant figures in the least precise measurement.
How many significant figures in 2.8 x 10.5?
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.
What is 1200 multiplied by 12?
14,400, but since 12 has only 2 significant figures, the answer should more properly be written as14,000
How many significant figures should be in the resulting calculations?
The least number of significant figures in any number of the problem determines the number of significant figures in the answer.
How do significant figures work when multiplying numbers?
When multiplying numbers, the result should have the same number of significant figures as the number with the fewest significant figures.
When numbers are divided or multiplied the calculated result is rounded off to the same number or significant figures present in the factor with the least number of significant figures?
Yes. That's a step you should usually include, to avoid the result from looking more accurate than it actually is.
