(D is wrong why and which is correct)
a) 0.468
b) 0.288
c) 0.234
D)2.14
E) 3.47
Explanation / Answer
Ans 1
= (1.47x10^3 - 6.23x10^2) x (2.12x10^4) / (1.73)
= 10379421.965
= 1.0379421965 x 10^7
The more the significant figures, the better the answer is correct
Between C and e options e has more significant figures than c
So the correct answer would be e ( not C)
If e does not exist in the options then C would be the correct answer
