Adelyn · Answer 1

In case of multiplication and division, the significant figures of the answer should be equal to the given with the lowest significant figure. We are given that:

(52.6 cm) * (1.214 cm)

The lowest significant figure is 3, therefore the answer is:

(52.6 cm) * (1.214 cm)

= 63.9 cm^2
