True or False. 5.700 = 5.70 & True or False. 17.34 = 17.340?

  • Both true and false ... how's that for fence-sitting? :)

    5.700 has a higher degree of accuracy than 5.70, which in turn has a higher degree of accuracy than 5.7

    Ditto with 17.340 and 17.34

    Can I illustrate the point this way? Let's say you had to add 1Kg of a chemical to a mixture. If the specification was 1,000g, you'd sense that a greater degree of accuracy was required. If the specification was 1,000.000g, you'd know to measure accurate to the nearest thousandth ... etc.

  • True and true.

    5.700 also equals 5.70000000000000000000000000

  • both true. all zeros after any number after a decimal are unrequired so just remove the zeros.

  • Both are true

  • both are true.......

    the 0's don't count for anything.

  • tru if its math false if its chemistry

  • All true.
