A rectangle has a length of 9.00 inches and a width of 4.25 inches. What is the area in square inches? Round to the correct significant digits.

OpenStudy (wonderwomen):

As others have stated the area is 9.00 x 4.25 = 38.25 sq in. Both of the specified dimensions are given with 3 significant digits, so an answer with 3 significant digits is appropriate. 38.3 sq. in. The answer can only be as precise as the least precise original data.

I think its 38.25

Hope this helps you! :)
