Answer

$1.59\times 10^{-19}C$

Work Step by Step

$ 1.60\times 10^{-19}/1=1.60\times 10^{-19}$ $3.15\times 10^{-19}/2=1.58\times 10^{-19}$ $4.81\times 10^{-19}/3=1.60\times 10^{-19}$ $6.31\times 10^{-19}/4=1.58\times 10^{-19}$ We calculate the average and round it to 3 significant figures: $\frac{1.60\times 10^{-19}+1.58\times 10^{-19}+1.60\times 10^{-19}+1.58\times 10^{-19}}{4}\approx 1.59\times 10^{-19}$
