How many significant figures are in your measurements of length and of width?

It depends on the precision of your ruler. It's usually recommended that you guess one digit after the precision of your ruler.
So if you have a meter stick with millimeters as the smallest measurement, try to guess to 10ths of a millimeter.
The number of significant figures depends on the size of your measurement. If it is less than 1 millimeter, you would only have one significant figure. For every order of magnitude greater, you would have one more significant figure.

2 physical properties that you can measure?
they are density heat length height width and thickness Length, height and width all measure the same property - distance just in different directions. Mass can be measured. Volume can be measured and sometimes calculated using measurements of distance and formulas for established shapes. Ex the volume of a rectangular prism is V= lwh Density is usually calculated based on mass and volume.
P2L 2w is the formula for what?
The equation is P=2L * 2WWhich stands for Perimeter=2(length) * 2(width)
Is width an extensive or an intensive?
Length is an extensive property.[ An extensive property of a system is directly proportional to the system size or the amount of material in the system, like mass and volume, but not: density or viscosity]
What is 530 milliliters in cm?
you cannot associate length and volume without width and height. If you meant millimetres, 530mm is 53cm
How can isotopes be used by forensic scientist to solve crimes?
Because it can show where someone has been on holiday, visiting someone or living for the past weeks or years depending on the length of the hair, the width of the hair, and how long it took for the hair to grow to its length.
Measurements such as length width base and height which describe the size of figures are called what?
dimensions
Solid figures that have length width and height?
All solid figures have length, width and height and, conversely, if a figure has length, width and height then it is a solid figure.
What measurements do you need to find the area and perimeter of a rectangle how would you use these measurements to find the area and perimeter of a rectangle?
you need length and width length multiply width = area length + length + width + width = perimeter
WHAT DOES 1* MEAN IN LENGTH/WIDTH MEASUREMENTS?
It means one times the length and width
How does perimeter relate to area?
The perimeter is equal to length + length + width + width while area is length x width. Both measurements are found by using width and length.

How do you write measurements for a box?
The measurements for a box is written thus: length, width and depth.
What two-dimensional figure has length and width?
Two examples of 2D figures are a square and rectangle drawn on a paper. Both example figures have length and width.
What is the area of a rectangle with these measurements Length 54 inches by Width 36 inches?
1944 in. Length x Width = Area
What are the measurements for an area 750 square feet?
if the shape is a square then the measurements would be a length of 27.386 feet and a width of 27.386 feet If it is a rectangle there are many possible combinations of length and width.
HOW TO CALCULATE SQFT?
Multiply the length measurement by the width measurement and this will give you the area in SQFT if your measurements of length and width were made in feet.
The and of many two-dimensional figures can be measured?
