Here we have to add the two measurements given in the question

The measurement values are given as 1.0090 cm and 0.02 cm.we have to  add them on the basis of significant figure rules.

As per the addition rule in terms of significant figures

1-First we have to select the number of significant digits after the decimal point of each quantity.

2-Now we have to remember that during the addition ,the resultant of two quantities will follow the quantity having least number of significant figures after the decimal point.

3-Here we are considering the minimum number of significant figures after the decimal points not the minimum number of significant figures in case of multiplication and division

Now we have to add these two quantities as per the above rule-

         1.0090 cm +0.02 cm

         =1.0290 cm

Here the result  will follow 0.02 which has minimum number of significant figures after the decimal points.

Hence we have to round off the number from 9 of 1.0290

As 9 is  greater than 5 ,so he actual result will be 1.03 cm
