Suppose you are asked to find the area of a rectangle that is 2.1-cm wide by 5.6-cm long. Your calculator answer would be 11.76 cm2 . Now suppose you are asked to enter the answer to two significant figures. (Note that if you do not round your answer to two significant figures, your answer will fall outside of the grading tolerance and be graded as incorrect.)
Enter your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

The significant figures need to be counted from first non-zero number at left. So put the 11.76 to two significant figures is 12. The unit is cm2. So the answer is 12 cm2.
