Significant Figures
Sig figs in measurement: Known digits & one final estimated digit
Ex: For the ruler image below, we can estimate to 0.00 (3 sig. figs.)

Rules
1. Digits 1-9 are significant
2. Zeroes between significant digits are significant
a. 1004 has 4 sig. fig.
3. Zeroes after 1-9 digits are NOT significant
a. 1000 has 1 sig. fig.
i. If there is a decimal point afterwards, then the zeroes will be
significant
1. 1000.0 has 5 sig.figs
4. Zeroes at the beginning that places decimal point are not significant
a. 0.0025 has 2 sig. figs
b. 0.002050 has 4 sig. figs

Rounding
If the next digit is above or equal to 5,
round up
If the next digit is below 5, round
down

Mathematical Operations
- Adding/Subtracting
- Round the answer to the
number with fewest
decimal places
- Multiplying/Dividing
- Round the answer to the number with the fewest sig. figs.
