(i) Add `73.24 mL` and `20.3 mL` (ii) Subtract `21.2342 g` foru `27.87 g`
Strategy: We first ensure that the quatities to be added or subtracted are expressed in the same units. We carry out the adition or subtraction. Then we follow rule 1 to express the answer to the correct number of significant figures, i.e., in the final answer, the number of right of the decimal point should be equal to the number of digits after the decimal point.

(i) `{:(73.24mL, larr "Two digits after the decimal point"),(+20.30 mL,larr "One digit after the decimal point"),(bar(93.54 mL),larr "Reported as 93.5 mL"):}`
(ii) `{:(27.8700 g, larr "Two digits after the decimal point"),(-21.2342 g,larr "One digit after the decimal point"),(bar(6.6358 g),larr "Reported as 93.5 mL"):}`

What is the area of a recantangel 12.34 cm wide and 1.23 cm long? Stargetey: The area of a rectangler is its length times its width. First, we must check that the width and length are expressed in the same units. Then we mutiply the length by the width. Finally, we follow rule 3 to find the correct number fo significant figures. The Units for the result are equal to the product of the units for the individual terms in the multiplication.
