Answer 1

The measurement of 34.2 meters has three significant figures. To report the longest possible length with the appropriate level of precision, we can extend the first digit beyond the last decimal place while still keeping it within a reasonable range. The closest possible measurement would be 34.25 meters.

So, the correct response is:

34.25
