Math Studies IA Question (Significant Figures)


Centurians

Recommended Posts

I'm a bit confused on the idea of 3 significant figures being required for all data in Math IA.

Does IB require that all data values, including the values shown while processing, be shown to three significant figures (with the assumption that the exact answer has to be rounded); and does this apply to tables too, if they are displaying the process to finding an answer, rather than displaying the data itself?

When significant figures are required, you need to make sure that they are maintained consistently throughout the IA. So I would say that all steps of the process need to be shown with all of the significant figures. Good luck! :)
