Six of them.
48.921 has five significant figures. A significant figure is any non-zero digit or any embedded or trailing zero. Leading zeros are not significant.
one
The greater the number of significant figures, the greater the precision. Each significant figure increases the precision by a factor of ten. For example pi = 3.14 is accurate to 3 significant figures, while pi = 3.14159 with 6 significant figures is a more accurate representation.

3 if there is a decimal present you start counting from the left with the first nonzero number and continue until there are no numbers left
There are six sig figs in 1356.30.
808.57 has 5 significant figures. The first digit, 8, is not considered a significant figure unless there is a decimal point present.

At most 1.
The greater the number of significant figures, the greater the precision. Each significant figure increases the precision by a factor of ten. For example pi = 3.14 is accurate to 3 significant figures, while pi = 3.14159 with 6 significant figures is a more accurate representation.
.020 has two significant figures: 2 and 0 A significant figure are digits that contain meaning contributing to precision. All numbers are considered meaningful except for zero, unless zero is between two other numbers or tailing non zero numbers where a decimal is present.
