Question
Chapter F, Problem A.28E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The answer of the given calculation has to be expressed in correct number of significant figures.
Concept Introduction:
Whenever a measurement is made, the significant figures in the measured quantity give the actual measurement. For this the significant figures should be recognized first. The significant figures may be non-zero digit and zero digit. But Zero may be or may not be a significant figure. The number of significant figures in the answer after solving a multiplication or division problem is same as the number of fewest significant figures present in the measurement.
