      Example: 50.01 – 45.5 = 4.5 (not 4.51). Leading zeroes are not significant. For example, the number 0.000624 has only three sig figs. Also, trailing zeroes without a decimal point are not significant unless otherwise noted. For example, the number 2100 has only two sig figs, while 2100.00 has six sig figs. Unit conversion

      (5) When a number ends in zeroes that are not to the right of a decimal point, the zeroes are not necessarily significant: 190 miles may be 2 or 3 significant figures, 50,600 calories may be 3, 4, or 5 significant figures. The potential ambiguity in the last rule can be avoided by the use of standard exponential, or ”scientific ...

      The mantissa is .021 and has 3 digits because 10.5 has 3 sig figs). NOTE: It is the number of digits , not the number of sig figs in the mantissa 7. For exponents, the number of sig figs is the same as the number of digits in the mantissa. For example 101.23 = 17 or 1.7 x 101. This has 2 sig figs because there are 2 digits in the mantissa (.23). 8.

For the computation (6.341 x 9.24) = ? The calculator gives me: 58.59084 The actual answer is 3 sig figs (due to the 9.24, as it has the least number of sig figs). Answer is 58.6

      A. Rules for determining how many Sig Figs are in a number: Rule #1: Non-Zero digits (# 1 – 9) and Zeros that are in between two non-zero digits are always significant. Rule #2: Leading zeroes are never significant. Rule #3: Trailing zeroes are only significant if a decimal point is present in the number. Examples:

      Example 1: 412945 has 6 sig figs. 2) All exact numbers have an unlimited number of sig figs. Example 2: If you counted the number of people in your class to be exactly 35, then 35 would have an unlimited number of sig figs. Example 3: It has been determined that exactly 60 seconds are in a minute, so 60 has an unlimited number of sig figs.
