OpenStudy (roxy.girl):

7.4 or 7.40 they are the same. :) 7.40 and 7.40 this is different XD 7.04 to 7.40 they are different :)

OpenStudy (g3n3sis08):

What she meant was 7.4 or 7.40 are the same. 7.40 and 70.4 are different. So is 7.04 and 7.4

OpenStudy (g3n3sis08):

It depends on how you read it :3

OpenStudy (mrnood):

they are the same - but 7.40 is more 'precise' in usual notation the number of significant figures allows you to interpret the precision of the measurement 7.40 means the true value is between 7.395 and 7.405 7.4 means the true value is between 7.35 and 7.45
