No. In a number like 0.057030:
True
4 significant figures. Zeros after the decimal are always significant.
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 the digits are significant in this case. A zero between other digits is always significant, and all zeros after the decimal point are significant.
False, Zeros are only significant digits when there is a primary number such as 1 before the as in 3200, then two zeros are counted but if zeros are before as in 0.032 than the only digits counted are 3 and 2.
No. 0.0000123 has three significant digits.
No, they are not.
True
That is correct.
No, a leading zero is NEVER a significant digit.
Zeroes to the left of the decimal point are significant if there is a decimal point present. Zeroes between numbers are always significant. Zeroes to the right of the decimal point are always significant. Non-zero numbers except for the last are always significant. The last non-zero number is always insignificant.
4 significant figures. Zeros after the decimal are always significant.
if between two other digits ex: 3009 or ending zeros when there is a decimal ex: 54.300
There is nothing that zeros are always considered. Zeros in some positions are significant, in other position are not. There is no always.
Five. Zeros that are after the decimal and are after nonzero integers are always significant.
All digits between the first non-zero digit and the last non-zero digits are significant. Some would argue that trailing 0s are significant since they are an indication of the precision of the number.
There are 6 significant figures in the number 1.40082. 1) All non-zero numbers are always significant. 2) All zeros between non-zero numbers are always significant. 3) All zeros which are to the right of the decimal point and at the end of the number are always significant. 4) All zeros which are to the left of a written decimal point and are in between a number are always significant.
