The area of a rectangular field (in m 2 ) of length 55 . 3 m and breadth 25 m after rounding off the value…

Length has 3 significant digits and breadth has 2 significant digits, hence the product should have least number of significant digits which is 2.

Area of rectangular field is, $A=\mathrm{length}\times \mathrm{breadth}$

$=55.3 \mathrm{m}\times 25 \mathrm{m}=1382.5 {\mathrm{m}}^2$

Thus, area of rectangular field upto correct significant figure is $14\times {10}^2$.
