Answer:
(102 900 ÷ 12) + (170 × 1.27) = 8800
Step 1. Evaluate the expressions inside the parentheses (PEMDAS)
102 900 ÷ 12 = 8575
170 × 1.27 = 215.9
In multiplication and division problems, your answer can have no more significant figures than the number with the fewest significant figures.
Thus, the underlined digits are not significant, but we keep them in our calculator to avoid roundoff error.
Step 2. Do the addition (PEMDAS).
8575
+ 215.9
= 8790.9
Everything that you add to an insignificant digit gives an insignificant digit as an answer.
Thus, the underlined digits are not significant.
We must drop them and round up the answer to 8800.
Explanation:
The volume of the textbook calculated by the student written to 3 significant figures is 992cm³
- According to this question, a student calculates the volume of his textbook and arrived at an answer of 991.880 cm³.
- To round up this digit to 3 significant figures, which means that only 3 significant numbers should appear in the answer.
- To do this, the number after the third number is 8, which means we can round up the value of 1 to 2. Hence, the volume of the textbook calculated by the student is 992cm³ in 3 s.f.

Above question is incomplete. Complete question is
<span>What is the missing number in the nuclear reaction 175 78 pt -- 4 2 He plus 76 Os?
....................................................................................................................
Solution:
Reaction involved in present nuclear event is
</span>175 78 Pt → 4 2 He + 76 Os
In above nuclear reaction, atomic mass number of Os is missing. The atomic mass number of Os = 175 - 4 = 171
Thus, complete nuclear can be written as
175 78 Pt → 4 2 He + 171 76 Os
Answer:
When fossil fuels are burned, carbon- dioxide and other greenhouse gases are released which trap the Sun's heat and can lead to global warming. The over heating of the atmosphere can put ecosystems under pressure especially the tundra regions.
