Answer:

A. 1 ounces

Explanation:

Significant figures : The figures in a number which express the value -the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy is known as significant digits.

Rules for significant figures:

  • Digits from 1 to 9 are always significant and have infinite number of significant figures.
  • All non-zero numbers are always significant. For example: 654, 6.54 and 65.4 all have three significant figures.
  • All zero’s between integers are always significant. For example: 5005, 5.005 and 50.05 all have four significant figures.
  • All zero’s preceding the first integers are never significant. For example: 0.0078 has two significant figures.
  • All zero’s after the decimal point are always significant. For example: 4.500, 45.00 and 450.0 all have four significant figures.
  • All zeroes used solely for spacing the decimal point are not significant. For example : 8000 has one significant figure.

Since, the increments is of 1 ounce and which have only 1 significant digit. So, The volume of the vegetable oil which is measured must have only one significant digit.

Thus, answer is - A. 1 ounces
