How many digits will be to the right of the decimal point in the product? 1.456 × 84 4 3 2 1 @Will.H @awesomedude2078
Find the product and report it to appropriate number of significant figure and finally check the number of decimal places in the product
is it 3
there is an easier way to do it take out the decimal so you'd have 1465 x 84 = 123060 then plug in the decimal again so you'd have 123.060
During multiplication the final answer should be reported with the number of significant figure equivalent to the number with the least number of significant figure
Just count the number of digits to the right of of the decimal of both terms, and add them up. 3 digits are on the right of the decimal on the first term, and 0 digits are on the right of the second term, so it would be 3 + 0.
there is no 123.060 sorry there is 1 2 3 or 4
It should be 1
it's 3 that's how many places are after the decimal
It's not 1 because .02 counts as 2 digits.
theoretically, it should be 3.
1.456*84=122.30400 Reporting it with 3 significant figure 122.3
Sorry it is 4 significant figure
the product is 122.304
