Question

ALWAYS use significant figure rules. Remember that these rules apply to all numbers that are measurements. A person walks along a road 2 miles and rests. Then taking another road, he travels 3.000 miles; and switching to a dirt path, he walks 2.00 miles before arriving at his destination. Determine the total distance the person walks.

a. 7 miles
b. 7.0 miles
c. 7.00 miles

Answer 1

I think your answer should be a.

Answer 2

option (a)

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance = 2 + 3.000 + 2.00 = 7 miles

As the number of significant figures in the answer should be 1.
