Hello There!

Significant figure means you should have x amounts of numbers that aren't zero.
In this case you are required to have one number that isn't a zero.
Therefore you round down to give you 7000 as your final answer.

To get a better idea follow through the rest:
E.g Round 64, 492 to two significant figures.
This means you'd have two numbers that aren't a zero.
So you're final answer would have been 64000.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)

the answer is 7000.

Any zero that isnt trapped between two non-zero numbers (on the left side of the decimal) is insignificant, therefore the 3 rounds down. hope this helped!
