Respuesta :

Answer:

Statement A is greater than Statement B.

Explanation:

Statement A: 2.567 km, to two significant figures..

To 2 sig figures means only 2 whole numbers should be left after approximation. Thus, 2.567 to 2 significant figures is 2.6 km

Statement B: 2.567 km, to three significant figures. To 3 sig figures means only 3 whole numbers should be left after approximation. Thus, 2.567 to 3 significant figures is 2.57 km

Comparing both values, statement A is obviously greater than Statement B
