i think its A ? 6?
The answer would be C. 6.32 m^2
Hope this Helps ;P
why is that?
Thank you for yuor help!
When you multiply two numbers, the number of significant figures is the least number of decimal places. In this case, that is 2 (3.15 has 2 decimal places). Rounding 6.319 to two decimal places, you get 6.32
Hope that clarified things
Thank you so much ! Makes sense
