Answer 2

Answer:

0.070

Step-by-step explanation:

To round to a significant figure:

look at the first non-zero digit if rounding to one significant figure

look at the digit after the first non-zero digit if rounding to two significant figures

draw a vertical line after the place value digit that is required

look at the next digit

if it's 5 or more, increase the previous digit by one

if it's 4 or less, keep the previous digit the same

fill any spaces to the right of the line with zeros, stopping at the decimal point if there is one
