Grocer's Balance Measurement
Measurement Results
Total Mass:
2.70 kg
Mass Difference:
0.02 g
Significant Figures:
2 (total), 2 (difference)
Explanation
This simulation demonstrates measurements with significant figures. The total mass is calculated by adding the box mass (2.30 kg) and the two gold pieces (converted to kg). The result is rounded to the least number of decimal places (1 decimal place for the box). The mass difference between gold pieces maintains 2 decimal places as in the original measurements.
