the diffrence is just nothing
(if there is to be one significant figure) 2 * 102(if there are to be two significant figures) 2.0 * 102 (if there are to be three significant figures) 2.00 * 102
The number of days in a year is approximately 365.25. In scientific notation with three significant figures, this can be expressed as 3.65 x 10^2 days.
2.93e−3
3633 = 3.6*103
There are 4 significant figures. This can be seen by writing the number in scientific notation: 108700 = 1.08700 x 10^5 = 1.087 x 10^5 Removing the two trailing zeros makes no difference to the value of the number in scientific notation, therefore they are not significant.
