|
When _________ and _________ the amount of sig figs allowed in your answer can not exceed the values you are working with. |
multiplying and dividing ex: (5.15cm) (2.3cm) = 11.845cm^2. this answer is incorrect. 2.3 of the problem has the fewest sig figs (2). So your answer can only have 2. The correct answer is 12cm^2 |
|
