Answer

2.52

Work Step by Step

If we raise 1.36 to the power of 3, we get an answer of 2.515456. However, because this is a powers problem, we need to round the answer off to the same number of significant figures as the given value, which, in this case, is three significant figures. We then round the answer to 2.52, which has three significant figures.
