This is a multiple choice answer as classified in NCERT Exemplar

(a) Given length = (1.62 ± 0.1 )cm

And breadth b= (10.1 ± 0.1 )cm

Area = l * b=163.62 cm2

But when we rounding off to three significant figures then it would be =164cm2

? A A = ? l l + ? b b = 0.1 16.2 + 0.1 10.1 = 2.63 163.62

s o ? A = A * 2.63 163.62 = 16.62 * 2.63 163.32 = 2.63cm2

So by rounding it off it become 3cm2

Area A= (164 ± 3 )cm2
