a. 0.000312 m

b. 312000 s

c. 3.12×105 km

d. 13,127 s

e. 2000

Concept introduction:

► Significant figures are the numbers which are reported in a measurement including the estimated digit.

► Scientific notation is a way to write very large numbers or very small numbers in small form for example like 0.000000065, we write 6.5× 108.
