3 significant figures.
If the conversion factor is exact, then the number of significant figures in the answer is the same as the number of significant figures in the original number.If the conversion factor is an approximation, then the number of significant figures in the result is the lesser of this number and the number of significant figures in the original number.
The least number of significant figures in any number of the problem determines the number of significant figures in the answer.
There are 2 significant figures in this number.
There are 4 significant figures in this number.
The answer will usually depend on the number of significant figures in the numbers from which there numbers were derived.
The appropriate number of significant figures to use in expressing the result of 51.6 x 3.1416 is three. This is because the factors each have three significant figures, so the result should also have three significant figures. The answer would be 162.
Three significant figures are in this number.
