Answer:
7x10⁴.
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, when rounding big number to a representation with less significant figures than it, we need to make sure we remove the spare figures and round up whether the next digit is five or more.
In such a way, for 74,000, we notice that 4 is not enough to round up the 7, that is why the number would contain a 7 only; moreover, to get rid of the thousand places, we need to introduce an exponent in 4 places, which means that the result would be:
7x10⁴.
Best regards!
