How many significant figures are there in each of the following measurements? •4.72006 s•0.0003 km•400 mL•320.0 mg

How many significant figures are there in each of the following measurements? •4.72006 s (6 significant figures)•0.0003 km (1 significant figure)•400 mL (1 significant figure)•320.0 mg (4 significant figures)

Round each measurement to the number of significant figures indicated: •4.7259 cm to three significant figures•7000 g to five significant figures•0.0003 km to four significant figures

Round each measurement to the number of significant figures indicated: •4.7259 cm to three significant figures (4.73 cm)•7000 g to five significant figures (7000.0 g)•0.0003 km to four significant figures (0.0003000 km)

Calculate the sums and differences with the appropriate number of significant figures:•475.30 g + 300 g =•723.4 mm -145.0030 mm =

Calculate the sums and differences with the appropriate number of significant figures:•475.30 g + 300 g = 800 g•723.4 mm -145.0030 mm = 578.4 mm

Calculate the following multiplication and division problems with proper significant figures:

•372.4 cm x 24.3 cm x 13.20 cm =

•45.0 g/ 72.5 mL =

Calculate the following multiplication and division problems with proper significant figures:

•372.4 cm x 24.3 cm x 13.20 cm = 119,000 cm^3

•45.0 g/ 72.5 mL = 0.621 g/mL

Convert 1000 mL to liters.

Convert 1000 mL to liters.

“milli-” means 1/1000. So, 1000 mL = 1 L

Convert 3542 ft to miles

Convert 3542 ft to miles

Start with what you know: 3542 ftThen state what you want to know: How many miles?There are 5280 ft in 1 mile. Therefore, 5280 ft. = 1 mileSo, 5280 ft/1mile = 1 = 1 mile/5280 ft.

3542 ft. x 1 mile/5280 ft. = 0.6708 miles

Convert 100 cm to meters

Convert 100 cm to meters

“centi-” means 1/100, so 100 cm = 1 meter

Convert 11 inches to feet.

Convert 11 inches to feet.

Start with what you know: 11 inches.Then state what you want to know: How many feet?There are 12 inches in 1 ft. Therefore, 12 inches = 1 ft. So, 12 inches/1 ft. = 1 = 1 ft./12 inches

11 in. x 1 ft./12 in. = 0.92 ft.

Convert 14.6 km to meters

Convert 14.6 km to meters

Start with what you know: 14.6 km.Then state what you want to know: How many meters?There are 1000 m in 1 km. Therefore, 1000 m = 1 km So, 1000 m/1 km = 1 = 1 km/1000 m

14.6 km x 1000 m/1 km = 14,600 m
