An exact number is something that cannot be simplified any further or expressed in any other way besides one. examples: 6 candles on the cake, 2 cups in the sink, 5280 feet in a mile. A measured number is something that you measure with a measuring device and record, and can be expressed in different ways. examples: someone is 5.76 feet tall, a pen is 3.10 inches long.

What is the difference between a measured digit and an exact number?
Hi! Wow, good question! In chemistry, an exact number is one that you know is absolutely true. For example, these are exact numbers: 12 inches in a foot 9 roses 1000mg in 1 g However, a measured number is one that needs significant figures. For example, these are measured numbers: 12.3 g 1001 liters 361.3 miles These are numbers that you aren't absolutely sure. If you weigh something and it states 3.0 grams, that is NOT an exact number, but rather a measured number. For all you know, the weight may be 3.00000003, but since the weighing scale can only show two digits, you get 3.0 g. Good luck!
