Answer

Rounding to three significant figures, the final answer is $\boxed{0.753}$

Steps

Step 1 ：The question is asking for the value of $x$ given that $\log (x)=-0.123$. The logarithm function is the inverse of the exponential function. Therefore, to find the value of $x$, we need to use the base of the logarithm (which is 10 if not specified) and raise it to the power of the value given (-0.123 in this case).

Step 2 ：$x = 10^{-0.123}$

Step 3 ：$x = 0.7533555637337174$

Step 4 ：Rounding to three significant figures, the final answer is $\boxed{0.753}$
