∙ 12y ago6, if the last digit is an indicator of the level of accuracy (or rounding). If not, 5 figures.
2.21 > 2.12 When comparing numbers the digit furthest to the left is the most significant. If these are equal move to the next digit from the left and so on.
Since we want to round a value with 3 sig fig, we need to round that value to the nearest tens. To figure that out, you need to count the number of digit places from the leading nonzero digit to the ending digit based on the number of three significant numbers.96829 is the starting digit. Then, count 2 digits next to "land on" the tens digit, which is 8.The adjacent digit is 2. Since 2 is not 5 or greater, we round down the value to obtain 9680.
All digits are significant in this case. Any digit after a decimal point is a significant digit.
Four - zeros in-between significant digits are significant.
It is 200000.
There are 12,500 of them and I am not going to list them. One of them is 200000.
It is 200000.
There is one significant digit in the number 10, as written.
Round the fourth digit: 1.001
There is one significant figure in 0.00001, which is the non-zero digit 1.
200000
The number whose farthest right significant digit determines it. Whatever place that digit is in is the last significant digit in the sum. For example: 433 + 150 + 3.67 + 8000 = 8586.67, but in sig figs this is only 9000, as the thousands digit is the lowest digit that can be represented.
4 All of them are significant. Only zeros are potentially insignificant. And that's only when your numbers either start with zeros like 0.001 (1 significant digit 1) or end with zeros 13.0000 (2 significant digit, 13). Any zeros between non-zero numbers are significant.
Accurately known digits along with first doubtful digit are called significant figures.
Six. Zeroes are significant when they are between non-zero numbers, and this number both starts and ends with non-zero numbers. Therefore every digit is significant.
All digit are significant except: leading zeros,in the case of integers, trailing zeros.All digit are significant except: leading zeros,in the case of integers, trailing zeros.All digit are significant except: leading zeros,in the case of integers, trailing zeros.All digit are significant except: leading zeros,in the case of integers, trailing zeros.
