Q

Calculations with significant Digits

A

Multiplying and dividing

-The value with the fewest number of significant digits, going into the calculations determines the number of significant digits

Adding & subtracting
-The value with he fewest number of decimal places, going into the calculation, determines the number of places that you should repeat in the answer
