Explanation

According to NCERT/scientific rounding rules: If the digit to be dropped is 5, then the preceding digit is left unchanged if it is even, and increased by 1 if it is odd. For 2.7452.745, the digit preceding 5 is '4' (even), so it remains 2.742.74. For 2.7352.735, the digit preceding 5 is '3' (odd), so it is rounded up to 2.742.74. Option A is correct.
