0.7535 = 0.754 (3sf).
10.25 = 10.3 (3sf)
NB When calculating 3 significant figures, inspect the fourth digit from the left , ignoring decimal points. If the fourth digit is '5' or greater, then add '1' to the third digit and drop all the remaining digits to the right. If the fourth digit is less than '5', then leave the third digit alone and drop all the remaining digits to the right.
When dealing with decimal 'zero's', the first non-zero digit is the first significant figure. In your example (0.07535) '7' is the first significant figure.

the 1st important determine is the 1st non-0 quantity from the left. subsequently the 1st important determine is 7 the 2nd 5 the 0.33 3 subsequently the determine in question is the three, so we seem on the different determine it quite is greter than or equivalent to 5 subsequently we enhance the previous by potential of a million (the previous is the three). subsequently 0.07535 to 3 sf. is 0.0754

0.07535 ===> 0.0754 (round to the nearest even number is case of 5)
100 ===> 100
The others either have two sig figs or are rounded off wrong.
