Round 742396 to

Mathematics
2 answers:
exis [7]2 years ago
7 0

When we round 742396 to four significant digits, then we get the answer of 742400

What we do is circle the first four digits on the left which are the 7,4,2, and 3. That last 3 will bump up to a 4 because we round up to the nearest hundred (due to the next digit being a 9, which is greater than 5).

Put another way, 742396 is closer to 742400 than it is to 742300. The zeros in 742400 are not significant.

---------------------------------------------

When we round 742396 to two significant digits, then we get the answer 740000

This time, we only keep the 7 and the 4 as our two important digits. Everything else becomes a 0 which isn't significant. No rounding happens since the 2 after the 4 isn't larger than five. I.e. the number 742396 is closer to 740000 than it is to 750000

---------------------------------------------

Rounding 0.07284 to three significant digits gets us to the answer 0.0728

We drop the 4 at the end because the 7,2, and 8 take up the three digits we want to keep. The two zeros are not significant.

---------------------------------------------

Rounding 0.07284 to two significant digits gets us the answer 0.073

We keep the 7 and 2 as our two important digits, but bump that 2 up to a 3 because the next digit over is larger than five.

A plane is travelling at 180 metres per second. How many minutes will it take for the plane to travel 800km? Give your answer in
Pavel [41]

Answer:

79 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

A plane is travelling at 180 meters per seconds

Convert to km/hr

180× 18/5

= 648 km/hr

Since 648 km equals 1 hour then the number of minutes required for the plane to travel 800 km is

= 1/648 × 800

= 1 hour 19 minutes

Conver the time to full minutes

60 minutes = 1 hour

= 60+19

= 79 minutes

Hence the minutes required for the plane to travel 800km is 79 minutes
