Two. The decimal indicates that the zero is significant otherwise it wouldn't be a significant digit.
When using significant digits, the product has only the number of significant digits as the lowest number in the factors. "20" has two significant digits and "310" has three. Therefore, the product has to have two significant digits. 310 × 20 = 6200 6200 already has two significant digits.
4 significant digits.
Five. All nonzero digits are significant and zeros in between significant digits are always significant.
Five. All nonzero digits are significant and zeros in between significant digits are always significant.
5 significant digits.

Significant digits refer to the number of digits that are known versus the number of digits that are estimated. So if the number 20 is an approximation, there is only one significant digit, which is the 2. However, if 20 is accurate to the ones place, then there are 2 significant digits. 20.00 has four significant digits, because it is known that the number is accurate down to the hundredths place.
