Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The numerator has 5 sig digits.

The denominator has 4 sig digits.

The fact that the denominator has a 0 after the decimal is correct in this case because there are 2 digits after that 0.

So the answer is that you have 4 sig digits. That's because you can guarantee only 4 digits in the denominator. You always use the lowest number of sig digits in your answer.
