Three in 150.With trailing zeros it can be ambiguous.One thing is certain: if you use scientific notation there is nor doubt.In scientific notation one hundred fifty can be written as1.5 * 102 in which case there are two significant figuresor it can be written as1.50 * 102 (or 15.0*101) with three significant figures [However there also is one trailing zerohere!]or as1.500 * 102 (four significant figures) this also could be expressed as 150.0 - no doubt there that there are four significant figures for zeros to the right of the decimal point!

It is already expressed as 3 significant figures which are 1, 0 and 5
5.7*101 or 5.7 E1
100.0 G + 0.01 G = 100.01 G Expressed in scientific notation: 1.0001*103 G

0.0006584 in Scientific Notation = 6.584 x 10-4
If done correctly, the coefficient of the scientific notation has the same number of significant figures as the whole number.

the diffrence is just nothing
(if there is to be one significant figure) 2 * 102(if there are to be two significant figures) 2.0 * 102 (if there are to be three significant figures) 2.00 * 102
2.93e−3
3633 = 3.6*103
There are 4 significant figures. This can be seen by writing the number in scientific notation: 108700 = 1.08700 x 10^5 = 1.087 x 10^5 Removing the two trailing zeros makes no difference to the value of the number in scientific notation, therefore they are not significant.
