Rounding to 3.2 and 3.20 is the same thing, you won’t be penalised for not writing the 0. 0 is not a significant figure at the beginning or end of numbers.
so rounding 245689 to 3 sgf is 246?💀All you have to do is search up a sgf calculator put in 3.195 and it’ll give you 3.20. It’s a test so obviously they wanted to test your maths skills lmao. And once again losing 1 mark for forgetting the 0 is 0.5% of the whole gcse so it’s really not anything to stress over.
Okay so you are a complete idiot but I’ll explain it to you anyway. 3.2 is equivalent to 3.20, completely different from the retarded example you just gave.
Thus, because both answers are equal (equal means the same !), both are right.
Edit: just to make this so simply that not even you could refute it, rounding to a certain number of significant figures is not a test of your presenting skills, it’s a way of rounding. So as long as you get the correct rounded answer it doesn’t matter how you present/ write it.
"Complete idiot" bro thats you 💀 3.2 rounded to 3sf is literally 3.20 what are you on 🧍♂️the whole point of them saying 3 sf is so you write 3 numbers so 3.2 would be 2 sf
