You should only include zeros after the decimal point if the scale is accurate to the number of zeros you include.
For example, if a scale is accurate to 1/100th of a gram, and an object weighs exactly 2 grams, it's correct to list the weight as 2.00 grams.
However, if the scale is only accurate to 1 gram, then you should list the weight of the object as 2 grams. Adding extra zeros implies accuracy that does not exist. With such a scale, your object could weigh anything between 1.50 and 2.49 grams and the scale would always show 2 grams.

How many significant digits does 0.00100 have?
three, leading zeros are not significant and trailing zeros are significant if there is a decimal. trailing zeros are not significant if there is no decimal zeros in the middle of numbers are significant
Include zeros in 2.25 million?
Million is the name given to a number with 7 digits in front of the decimal place. In order to write out any number take the number you are given and and move the decimal place to the right until you have 7 digits in front of the decimal. add zeros to the end until it has 7 digits in front of the decimal place. So 2.25 million would be 2,250,000.
How many significant zeros are in this number 0.01000200?
Five. Zeros in between significant digits are significant and trailing zeros that are after the decimal are significant.
How many zeros are in millionth?
Five between the decimal point and the 1.
How many zeros are in hundred thousandths?
The hundred thousandths place is the fifth to the right of the decimal point and would have four zeros in front of it.
How do you write 9574.7 with zeros?
0009574.7 possibly. You should not add zeros after the decimal point because, even though the value remains the same, adding zeros after the decimal point indicates a higher level of accuracy (more significant figures).
How many significant digits does 0.00100 have?
three, leading zeros are not significant and trailing zeros are significant if there is a decimal. trailing zeros are not significant if there is no decimal zeros in the middle of numbers are significant
If an answer is 4.00 what do the zeros indicate?
The two zeros after the decimal point indicate that the answer is correct to two decimal places.
What are the rules in significant fingures?
Significant figures are the digits in a number that contribute to its precision. The rules include: all non-zero digits are significant; zeros between significant digits are significant; leading zeros are not significant; trailing zeros in a decimal number are significant; and in whole numbers without a decimal point, trailing zeros are not considered significant. When performing calculations, the result should be reported with the same number of significant figures as the measurement with the least significant figures involved in the calculation.
In significant figures which zeros are not considered significant?
Leading zeros and trailing zeros in numbers that don't have a decimal point.
How many of the zeros in the measurement 0.000 040 200 m are significant?
There are 4 significant zeros in the measurement 0.000 040 200 m. Zeros between significant digits are considered significant, as well as zeros to the right of the decimal point in a measured quantity.
How do you determine the number of zeros to annex in the product of 0.002 and 0.003?
To determine the number of zeros to annex in the product of 0.002 and 0.003, first count the total number of decimal places in both numbers. Each number has three decimal places, so the total is six decimal places. When multiplying the two numbers, the product should have six decimal places, which means you append six zeros after the product of the non-decimal parts (2 and 3), resulting in 0.000006.
How is six thousands decimal from?
6,000 and there is no need for a decimal point or following zeros.
Include zeros in 2.25 million?
Million is the name given to a number with 7 digits in front of the decimal place. In order to write out any number take the number you are given and and move the decimal place to the right until you have 7 digits in front of the decimal. add zeros to the end until it has 7 digits in front of the decimal place. So 2.25 million would be 2,250,000.
How many significant zeros are in this number 0.01000200?
Five. Zeros in between significant digits are significant and trailing zeros that are after the decimal are significant.
How is the decimal number calculated?
division. add a decimal with zeros after it and just keep dividing.
How many zeros do you add after the decimal as a percentage?
Uncountable
