you need to find the up and lb of a and then find to the greatest amount of sigfigs a number that both round to

#

so in this case ub and lb of a are 4.7579 and 4.69006 respectively

#

they both round to 5 as one sig fig

#

for 2 sig fig lb rounds to 4.7 but ub rounds to 4.8

#

so here suitable degree of accuracy will just have a as 5
