Just one of them between 5 and 1
The number 0.600 has three significant figures. All non-zero numbers are always significant. Leading zeroes are never significant, and trailing zeroes that follow a decimal point are always significant.
All of them.All zeroes between non-zero digits are significant.All zeroes after a decimal point are significant.
Answer is 1 Sig Fig. You count the "1" as a Significant Figure, and the trailing zeroes are not considered Sig Figs.
There are 4 significant figures. If a number has a decimal point with some zeroes, we count the total number of digits. Therefore, we count four significant figures.
1. All non-zero digits are significant. For example, 295 has three significant figures. 2. Leading zeroes in front of a decimal are not significant. For example 0.295 has three significant figures. 3. Zeroes between other significant figures are significant. For example 2095 has four significant figures. 4. Trailing zeroes after a decimal are significant. For example 295.0 has four significant figures. And 2950 has three significant figures because the trailing zero does not occur after a decimal.
3. Any number that is not a 0 is a significant number. Rules for Significant Figures: 1. Non-zero numbers are always significant. (example: 1-9) 2. Zeroes between non-zeroes are always significant. (ex: the zero in 908 is significant) 3. All final zeroes to the far right of the decimal place are significant. (ex: the zeroes in 34.0 and 7.0 is significant) 4. Zeroes that act as place holders are not significant. (ex: the zeroes in 600 are not significant) 5. Zeroes before a decimal act as place holders and are not significant. (ex. the zero in 0.12 is not significant)
0.007001 has four significant figures. The leading zeroes are not significant. The zeroes between the 7 and 1 are significant because they are between two significant figures (7 and 1).
3 The leading zeroes are not significant.
8. Trailing zeroes after a decimal are significant.
Four. The leading zeroes are not significant.
One. The leading zeroes are not significant.
Four. The trailing zeroes are not significant because there is no decimal.
three The leading zeroes are not significant.
5 (zeroes before the number don't count, zeroes after the number do)
The number 0.600 has three significant figures. All non-zero numbers are always significant. Leading zeroes are never significant, and trailing zeroes that follow a decimal point are always significant.
There are 5 significant figures, the six plus the four zeroes. The zeroes are significant figures due to the inclusion of the decimal - with no decimal there would only be one significant figure (the six).
4. The zeroes to the left are not significant, the zero to the right, is.
