2 AnswersMathematics9 years ago349cm + 1.10cm + 100cm = ? Significant Digits?
349cm + 1.10cm + 100cm = ? in Significant Digits. Please show all your work.
When you add all that up, you get 450.1.
Significant Digits state to round the answer to the lowest PLACE VALUE when adding / subtracting.
So in this case, the lowest place value is at 100cm and 349cm.
Therefore 450.1 would turn to 450 as the final answer but the answers say it is 500?

2 AnswersOther - Internet9 years agoDo we use HST Recoverable for Transportation-In and HST Payable for delivery expense?
I am wondering if we need to use HST Recoverable for Transportation-In and HST Payable for delivery expense in transactions.
Lets say for example we get a transaction like so:
Joe purchases $1000 worth of pens in cash (Plus HST).
So transaction is
Dr. Purchases 1000
Dr. HST Recoverable 130
Cr. Cash 1130
Now lets say then next transaction is Transportation costs $300 to ship in Cash.
Is the transaction
Dr Transportation-In
Cr. Cash
or do we need to add HST on transportation as well.
Same goes for Sales. Do we need to account for HST on delivery expense?
I know we need to on Sales part of it (HST Payable)
But I am referring to the Delivery expense part of it.
Thanks in advance!
