Problem

A resistance bridge and its propagation sheet output the following calculator values for a standard resistor: R=47.3826 Ω,u(R)=0.5734 Ω.R = 47.3826\ \Omega, \qquad u(R) = 0.5734\ \Omega. ((a)) Write the result in the house form R=Rˉ±u(R)R = \bar R \pm u(R), with the uncertainty rounded to two significant figures and the value rounded to the same decimal place. ((b)) Write the same result in the concise bracket notation.
