Accepted Answer

Welcome back everybody. We are taking a look at this operation here and we need to simplify it in terms of significant figures. Let's rewrite this expression here. We have the square root of 25.4. Just go ahead and plug this into your calculator. And we get this number here.  aN:aN:000NaN 5.0398412673. Thankfully we have the rules of significant figures because that's a little bit of a pain to write out. So let's observe here what our initial expression was in our initial initial expression, 25.4 has three significant figures, meaning that we have to round this entire number significant figures. When we perform this operation, we round up to 5.4 giving us a final answer choice of the Thank you all so much for watching Hope. This video helped. We will see you all in the next one.
