Yes, the rules of scientific notation are:
1. All non-zero digits are significant
2. Zeros in between non-zeros are significant.
3. Zeros to the left of the first non-zero number are NOT significant.
4. Zeros to the right of non-zero numbers are significant IF a decimal point is present.
P.S: if you need help with sig fig rounding, let me know.
Answer:
it translates to something i can't say on here ;)
The answer for either field being harvested is 6.25 days (acres/(rate of harvest))
The answer is probably seven because, even though a day can be divided into parts, the fields are done the seventh not the sixth. (I'm assuming the problem calls for whole days)
