The number 5 x10 -4 will be less than 1.0 because the 5x10^-4 is number that can be written as 0.0005 as the power of the 10 is in negative digits which comes into the point digits after evaluating carefully.
Thus it is clear that 1.0 is bigger than 0.0005.

The number of significant figures in each measurement is determined by the number of digits that are known with certainty plus one uncertain digit. In this case:

1. 76.48 cm: 4 significant figures (all digits are known with certainty)
2. 76.47 cm: 4 significant figures (all digits are known with certainty)
3. 76.59 cm: 4 significant figures (all digits are known with certainty)

Therefore, each measurement has 4 significant figures.
