3 Kyra and Pari are timing how long it takes for 1 g of sugar to dissolve in hot water. Kyra records a time of 24.3 seconds. Pari records a time of 24 seconds. Whose reading is more precise? Why?
Kyra is more precise as she has included the exact point second it had dissolved whereas Pari just rounded it to the closest number making her write a whole number that was rounded down.
