Questions: Using the table of equalities, calculate the number of microliters (μL) in 27 liters (L). Remember to select an answer with the correct number of significant figures.

Solution Steps

To convert from liters (L) to microliters ($\mu \mathrm{L}$), we need to know the conversion factor between these two units.

1 liter (L) is equal to $10^6$ microliters ($\mu \mathrm{L}$).

We need to convert 27 liters (L) to microliters ($\mu \mathrm{L}$). Using the conversion factor: \[ 1 \, \text{L} = 10^6 \, \mu \text{L} \]

Multiply the number of liters by the conversion factor: \[ 27 \, \text{L} \times 10^6 \, \mu \text{L/L} = 27 \times 10^6 \, \mu \text{L} \]

The number 27 has two significant figures, so our final answer should also have two significant figures.
