Answer:

  • trailing zeros are dropped
  • 1846 beats
  • 42×(selling price for 1 tin)

Step-by-step explanation:

41. The product of 0.25 and 0.4 is 0.100, with three decimal places. Trailing zeros are usually dropped--except when they are used to indicate significant digits in a calculation. Hence, the usual presentation of the result is ...

  0.25 × 0.4 = 0.1

__

42. To find total beats, multiply beats per second by seconds.

  (52 beats/second)(35.5 seconds) = (52)(35.5) beats = 1846 beats

The hummingbird's wings will beat 1846 times in 35.5 seconds.

__

43. To find total sales for the week, multiply the price of a tin of popcorn by the number sold in the week (42).

Answer:

41) 0.25 × 0.4 = 0.1

It has only one decimal place in the product because 0.25 has two significant figures and 0.4 has one significant figure. When multiplying, the product will always match with the number that has the least amount of significant figures. Since 0.4 has one significant figure, the product, 0.1, will also have one significant figure.

42) 35.5 s × 52 times/s = 1,846 times

43) 42 tins × $9.25/tin = $388.50

Hope that helps.
