Solution Steps

Step 1: Perform the Division

Calculate the division of the two numbers: \[ \frac{121.8}{4.87} = 25.010266940451743 \]

Step 2: Determine Significant Figures

Identify the number of significant figures in each number:

  • \( 121.8 \) has \( 4 \) significant figures.
  • \( 4.87 \) has \( 3 \) significant figures.
Step 3: Round the Result

Round the result to the number of significant figures of the number with the fewest significant figures, which is \( 3 \): \[ \text{Rounded Result} = 25.01 \]

Final Answer

\(\boxed{25.01}\)

Three candidates are running for the mayor of a small town. The candidates are Hu(H), Aponi (A), Ben (B) and Makayla (M). A vote of all town residents was held and the results are summarized in the preference table below. Number of Votes 71 61 57 75 First Choice B M M H Second Choice A H H A Third Choice M B A B Fourth Choice H A B M Using the pairwise comparison method, determine winner of the mayoral race. - Aponi - Ben - Makayla Suppose that, prior to the announcement of the winner, Aponi and Ben decide to drop from the mayoral race. Using the pairwise comparison method, determine winner of the mayoral race after Aponi and Ben are no longer in the running. - Aponi - Ben - Makayla Determine if the irrelevant alternatives criterion is met in this case. Explain why or why not. - Yes, the irrelevant alternatives criterion is satisfied, since the winner of the first election also won the second election, after one of the initial non-winning candidates dropped from the race. - No, the irrelevant alternatives criterion is not satisfied, since the winner of the first election also won the second election, after one of the initial non-winning candidates dropped from the race. - No, the irrelevant alternatives criterion is not satisfied, since the winner of the first election did not win the second election, after one of the initial non-winning candidates dropped from the race.
