Question 5 (1 point)

Answer 1

Answer: 18900

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the question:

In 2001, the Guinness Book of World Records recognized a breakfast which served 18,941 people as the largest ever cooked. Which number below shows 18,941 rounded to 3 significant digits?

18,941 rounded to 3 significant figures

To round to 3 significant figures, the first 3 numbers are kept intact, then the subsequent number is rounded up to 1 if up to or greater than 5 and added to the third figure. If less than 5, all subsequent numbers are rounded down to 0

Hence,

18,941 = 18900 (because 4 is less than 5, 4 and all subsequent numbers are rounded down to 0).
