Which numbers are exact (and therefore have an unlimited number of significant figures)? Check all that apply: 1 mile = 1760 yards e = 2.72 An EPA gas mileage rating of 26 miles per gallon 1 gross = 144 Submit Previous Answers Request Answer Incorrect; Try Again; 3 attempts remaining Exact numbers originate from three sources: from accurate counting of discrete objects, from defined quantities, and from integral numbers that are part of an equation. Determine whether there are measured quantities among the given numbers.
