A cube has a side of length  $1.2\times {10}^{-2}$ cm. Calculate its volume up to correct significant figures

$\begin{array}{l}V=L^3\\ =\left(1.2\times {10}^{-2}\right)\times \left(1.2\times {10}^{-2}\right)\left(1.2\times {10}^{-2}\right)\\ =1.7\times {10}^{-6}c{m}^3\end{array}$

Based on significant figure the result should have two significant figures
