we know that
Precision refers to the degree of significant figures, or basically how many numbers after the decimal. It is the number of digits in a number.

so
54.651
0.703
have the same precision (three number after the decimal).
therefore

the answer is
B and D

Answer:

Option B and option D are true.

( B. 54.651 and D. 0.703 )

Explanation:

Precision:

it is the accuracy (as in binary or decimal places) with which a number can be represented usually expressed in terms of the number of computer words available for representation.

Clearly from the given set of the numbers in the options i.e.:

A. 1,265 B. 54.651 C. 24.5 D. 0.703

We could observe that the number of digits after the decimals are equal in B and D options.

Hence the two numbers are precise at the same level.

Hence, option B and Option D are true.

( B. 54.651 and D. 0.703 )
