Using the rules for significant figures, what do you get when you multiply 67.6 by 1.2? 8 81 81.1 81.12

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

First off, multiply the two numbers together. Tell me what you get.

OpenStudy (jv0408):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The answer is E. Use a Calculator

OpenStudy (jv0408):

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

Um, there is no E. But 81.12 is correct

OpenStudy (jv0408):

I got 81.12

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

^yep :)

OpenStudy (jv0408):

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

how?

OpenStudy (jv0408):

I don't know lol

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

You should include all the significant figures, which would be 81.12, unless the teacher specially states to round to a certain amount

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

I think you should argue it to your teacher

OpenStudy (jv0408):
