    to result from a final step.
    b. 3.0000 represents a quantity that is known more precisely than 3.0.
    c. There is no difference.
    d. They convey the same information, but 3.0 is preferred for ease of writing.
    7. It refers to a measure of how far apart the different measured values are from each
    other.
