Answer: Choice D

Explanation:

The increase of 9.8% rounds to 10% when rounding to the nearest ten

An increase of 10% would use the multiplier 1.1

Think of it like saying 1 + 0.10 = 100% + 10%

Similarly, the 5.1% rounds to 5% and an increase of this amount will use the multiplier 1.05

So if we started with 20 items, then 20(1.1)(1.05) is the expression that estimates an increase of 10% followed by an increase of 5%. The order doesn't matter (so you could increase by 5% first, then 10% later).

Perform the calculation then
Andru [333]

Answer:

416 (3 s.f.)

Step-by-step explanation:

To multiply decimals, begin by multiplying the numbers as if there is <u>no decimal</u>:

\large\begin{array}{cccccc}&& 1 & 2 & 8 & 5\\\times && & 3 &2 & 4\\\cline{1-6} && 5 & 1 & 4 & 0\\&2&5&7&0&0\\3&8&5&5&0&0\\\cline{1-6}4&1&6&3&4&0\\\cline{1-6}^1&^1&^1&&\phantom{^{\frac{1}{2}}}&\end{array}

Count the number of digits <u>after</u> the decimal point in each factor:

  • 128.5 → 1 digit after the decimal point.
  • 3.24 → 2 digits after the decimal point.

Therefore, there is a total of 3 digits after the decimal points.

Put the same number of digits after the decimal point in the product.

Therefore, the solution is to the multiplication is:

  • 416.340

The factor with the <u>fewest signification figures</u> is 3.24.

This number has 3 significant figures.

Therefore, the solution to 3 significant figures is:

  • 416 (3 s.f.)
