Not 100% sure, but I'd have to say this:When rounding for sig figs, you look at the other numbers in your calculation and see which one has the least amount of sig figs. This number is 2.70. (3 sig figs). So, you round to 3 significant figures in your calculation.Hope this helped!... Show More

C. 3Explanation:To determine the number of significant figures use this memory aid:  If the decimal is Absent count from the Atlantic (right side).  If the decimal is Present count from the Pacific (left side).   Start counting at the first non-zero digit.The result of a calculation can only contain the lowest number of significant figures given in the problem.  2.70 has 3 significant figures....

The answer is (3) 3. The calculation rule of significant figures is when multiplication and division, the significant figures of result is equal to the least of the numbers involved. The significant figure of 2.70 and 80.01 is 3 and 4.... Show More
