Answer :

Answer:

2.26

Explanation:

First you should know what are significant figures,

1 . All non - zero digits are significant.

2 . The zero between two non-  zero are significant.Ex 302 has 3 significant figures.

3. The zero before the decimal and before any non-zero digit is non significant. Example : 0.003 has only 1 significant figure.

4. The zero after non zero are non - significant . But the zeros after the decimal point are significant.

300 has only 1 significant figure

300.0 has 4 significant figure

The least number of significant figures present in the number should be there in the final answer of the calculation.

Look at the number having minimum significant digits :

It is 3 (every number has 3- significant figures ) So the answer should also contain 3 - significant figures.

[tex]\frac{0.102\times 0.0821\times 273}{1.01}[/tex]

First solve the numerator part

[tex]\frac{2.285}{1.01}[/tex]

[tex]=2.2635[/tex]

Round off this number to 3 significant figures.

Answer is = 2.26

It has 3 - significant digit since all the digits are non-zero.
