// To find voltage drop across resistor

// Given data
I = 3.18; //Current flowing through the resistor = 3.18A
R = 35.68; // The value of resistor = 35.68ohm
// Calculations
E = I*R;
printf("The voltage drop across the resistor = %0.4f volts",E);
disp('Since there are 3 significant figures involved in the multiplication, the result can be written only to a max of 3 significant figures');
printf("Hence the voltage drop across the resistor = %0.0f volts",E);
//Result
// The voltage drop across the resistor = 113.4624 volts
// Since there are 3 significant figures involved in the multiplication, the result can be written only to a max of 3 significant figures
// Hence the voltage drop across the resistor = 113 volts
