Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Perform the division

$2.40\div31 = 0.0774193548\cdots$

Step2: Determine significant - figures

The number 31 has 2 significant figures. When dividing, the result should be reported with the same number of significant figures as the number with the fewest significant figures in the values used in the calculation. So, we round 0.0774193548 to 2 significant figures, which gives 0.077.
