You are told A=4.444, B=5.000 and C=0.6666. In the first blank, determine D=(A-B)/C= . Enter the result using exactly 4 sig figs (rounding in the fourth sig fig). Note: if you get a decimal number, be sure to include the leading zero before the decimal to ensure credit. For example, enter "0.09832" instead of ":09832". In the second blank, enter the appropriate number of sig figs which should be used if one was going to round this answer according to sig fig rules. Number of sig figs =
