Significant figures are the digits in a number that carry meaningful information about its precision. This includes all non-zero digits, any zeros between significant digits, and trailing zeros in the decimal portion. They are important in scientific and mathematical calculations to convey the accuracy of measurements and to ensure that results are reported consistently. Understanding significant figures helps prevent the misrepresentation of data precision in calculations and reporting.
