The first step in taking any number to 1 significant figure is to find the greatest non-zero digit. In this case it is the 2, as that represents 2 tenths. The next step is to look at the next digit on. If it is 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9 we need to round up. Otherwise, we can leave it as it is. The next digit is 0, so we don't need to round up. Therefore 0.209 rounded to 1 significant figure is 0.2
4, 3, 0, 2 and 3.
In 10.00, the first significant figure is the "1", and the last significant figure is the last "0", because zeroes to the right of the decimal are significant. The two central zeroes are also significant because they are between significant figures, so 10.00 has 4 significant figures.
5 kilometers. A significant figure is anything except a 0, before a decimal point.
significant figures are any numbers before or after a decimal point excep 0 so 01.2134 to 2 significant numbers is 1.2. if there is a 0 after a signifcant figure it counts for example.... 1.100 to three significant figures is 1.10
A significant figure is any number that is not 0. -- not a trailing 0. 103456.23470 to 3 sig figs is 103000 So 1256.637 to 3SF is 1260 You have to round up in this example.
You count the number 5 as the first significant figure,7 the second, 6 the third. You then round the it up or down from the following number. As it it 0 you round down, leaving it as 6. A: 5.76
One significant figure.And The that significant figure in that number is 6- 0 doesn't count as a significant figure.
Starting at the second digit after the decimal, if it is between 0 and 4, you round the first digit down. If it is between 5 and 9, you round it up. If the third digit is between 0 and 4, you round the second digit down. If it is between 5 and 9, you round the second digit up. Rounded to.......... 1 signifcant figure: .3 2 significant figures: .29 3 significant figures: .294 4 significant figures: .2943 5 significant figures: .29430
5, if the trailing zeros are there to indicate the precision. 1 otherwise.
62 rounded to one significant figure is 60. 57 rounded to one significant figure is 60. 573 rounded to one significant figure is 600. 0.0573 rounded to one significant figure is 0.06. In each of these answers the 6 is the only significant figure.

4, 3, 0, 2 and 3.
6 of them because although the last 0 is included it is not counted as a significant figure.
38.0 don't forget the 0
It depends to what degree of accuracy: 10.25 (2 Decimal Places) 10.3 (1 Decimal Place) 10 (0 Decimal Places) 10 (1 Significant Figure) I included 1 Significant Figure for your future reference. If the number was 11.245 then to 1 Significant figure would be 10 because 0 does not count as a figure and therefore the 1 in 11 would be the only FIGURE.
In 10.00, the first significant figure is the "1", and the last significant figure is the last "0", because zeroes to the right of the decimal are significant. The two central zeroes are also significant because they are between significant figures, so 10.00 has 4 significant figures.
