Express the following numbers to four significant figures.
(1) `1.81234xx10^(3)`
(2) 0.008837

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(1) The fifth digit is less than 5, therefore result is expressed as `1.812 xx 10^(3)`
(2) The four digits to be retained are 8, 8. 3 and 7 therefore, the number is expressed as `8.837 xx 10^(-3)`
Note : The exponential terms does not add to significant figures.
