A piece of length 3.532 m is cut from a rod of length 43.4 m. The length of the remaining rod in metre is (up to correct significant figures)
A piece of length 3.532 m is cut from a rod of length 43.4 m. The length of the remaining rod in metre is (up to correct significant figures)
Show Hint
For addition and subtraction with significant figures, the result's precision is limited by the least precise measurement. The rule is to round the final answer to the same number of decimal places as the input number with the fewest decimal places.
