Q. Which measurement is more precise?

\newline

Choices:

\newline

(A)

92.42\,\text{mg}

\newline

(B)

39.8\,\text{mg}

Identify Measurements: Identify the given measurements. $\newline$ We have two measurements: $92.42\,\text{mg}$ and $39.8\,\text{mg}$ .
Determine Decimal Places: Determine which measurement has more decimal places. $\newline$ The measurement $92.42\,\text{mg}$ has two decimal places, while the measurement $39.8\,\text{mg}$ has only one decimal place.
Compare Precision: Compare the precision based on the number of decimal places. A measurement with more decimal places is considered to be more precise because it indicates a finer level of measurement.
Conclude Measurement: Conclude which measurement is more precise. Since $92.42\,\text{mg}$ has more decimal places than $39.8\,\text{mg}$ , it is the more precise measurement.
