Question

Round off the following number to 3 digits 34,560​

Answer 1

3.46x10⁴

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we can see that the number 34,560 has five significant figures, it means that if we want to write it with three, we must take the 3, 4 and 5 only. Nevertheless, since the 6 after the five is greater than 5, we can round such five to 6, so we obtain:

346

However, the decimal places cannot get lost, therefore, we move the given thousand to the three, so the number turns out:

3.46x10⁴

Best regards.
