How many significant figures in 0.0920?

Answer 1

Just three. The 2 and the 8 are significant because any non-zero number is always significant. The zero between the 2 and the 8 is significant because any zero between any non-zero number is significant. But the three zeros before the 2 are not significant because they're just placeholders.

Answer 2

There are three significant figures. This is because numbers in-font of the number which is larger than 0 ( in this case is the number 1 in 0.01 ) is not be counted into significant figures. And after the '1' is counted.

Just two. The zeros before the "89" are just placeholders.
