I keep getting this problem wrong because of the sig. digits, dont round till the end because if it is off by 0.1, it will be incorrect.

Liquid hexane (CH3(CH2)¸CH;
)
reacts with gaseous oxygen gas (0,) to produce gaseous carbon dioxide (CO,) and gaseous water (H,0). What is the
theoretical yield of carbon dioxide formed from the reaction of 37.9 g of hexane and 102. g of oxygen gas?
Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits in it.
