Assertion : \(1.34 \times 10^{-3}\) and 1.23 both have three significant figures. Reason : Numbers other than zero are all significant.
1 Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion.
2 Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation of the Assertion.
3 Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
4 Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct.
Explanation:
In scientific notation, all digits, including trailing zeros to the right of the decimal point, are considered significant figures. So, the option (1) is correct.

The correctly reported answer of the addition of \(\mathrm{29.4406,3.2}\) and 2.25 will have significant figures
1 3
2 4
3 2
4 5
Explanation:
\(\mathrm{29.4406+3.2+2.25=34.8906}\). As 3.2 has least number of decimal places, (i.e., one) The sum should also contain one decimal place only. After round off, reported sum is 34.9 , which has three significant figures.
