The digit 0 is significant only when it is preceded by another number(other than 0).106.0 has 4 significant figures0.0016 has 2 significant figures2. Addition and subtraction: round off at the digit closest to the decimalpoint.63.43 − 1.245 + 0.4652 = 62.65 (not 62.6502)3. Multiplication and division: keep only the number of digits held bythe number having the fewest significant figures.(0.156)(84.25)(1.7854)/1.6 = 15 (not 14.6659) 4. Terminal zeros should be expressed in exponential notation unlessthey are significant.93,000,000 expressed to 3 significant figures is 9.30x107ExercisesCarry out the following conversions following the rules of significantfigures.a). 12 oz to mg.b). 5 nickels to Swiss Francs where 1 SF = 0.36 $.c). 3x1010cm/s to mi/hr.d).
