Question 1 Report

Express, correct to three significant figures, 0.003597. 

Answer Details
To express 0.003597 correct to three significant figures, we need to round off the number to the third digit after the decimal point. The third digit after the decimal point is 7. Since 7 is greater than or equal to 5, we need to round up the second digit after the decimal point. Therefore, the third digit becomes zero. Hence, the rounded value of 0.003597 correct to three significant figures is 0.00360. Therefore, the answer is: 0.00360.
