Answer:
155,000
159,999
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to correct to 2 significant figures, look at the third figure, if the number is greater or equal to 5, add 1 to the ten thousand figure. If this is not the case, add zero. Replace all the figures before the thousand figure with zero. i.e. the hundred ten, unit
e.g. Rounding off 10,999 to the nearest thousand is 11,000
In this example, the least figure, the thousand figure should have to be rounded off to 2 significant figures is 5 and the greatest figure it can have is 9
