Zero are always considered significant digits when they are to the left of the decimal point as in 0.032?
No, a leading zero is NEVER a significant digit.
What is the situation where a zero is not considered to be a significant digit?
Leading 0s are not significant digits, nor are trailing 0s after a decimal point in some situations. For example in 01000.01000, the first 0 is not significant as it can be left off without impacting the number. The final three 0s can be significant in some cirmcumstances, such as precise scientific measurements, or non-significant as they do not alter the number's value of 1000.01
Is considered a significant digit when it is to the left or the right of the decimal point and do it follows a non-zero digit?
If I understand this convoluted sentence correctly, then think it is true.
Is considered a significant digit when it is to the right of the decimal point it follows a non-zero digit or when it is between two digits?
I'll assume you're asking about zeros. Zeros appearing anywhere between two non-zero digits are significant. In the other two cases they could be, but are not necessarily significant.
Zeros are always considered significant digits when they are to the right of the decimal point and when they are between the decimal point and another digit as in 13.04.?
That is correct.
Is considered a significant digit when it is to the left or the right of the decimal point and it follows a non-zero digit or when it is betwee two digits?
Zero is considered a significant digit when it is to the left or the right of the decimal point. It is also a significant digit when it follows a non-zero digit or when it is between two digits.
Is considered a significant digit when it is to the left or the right of the decimal point?
It can be.
Is considered a significant digit when it is to the left or the right of the decimal point and it follows a nonzero digit or where. It is between two digit?
All digits between the first non-zero digit and the last non-zero digits are significant. Some would argue that trailing 0s are significant since they are an indication of the precision of the number.

Significant

How do you round up or down when the last digit of significant digit is 5?
When the last digit of a significant digit is 5, you always round up.
