Three: 502. Leading and trailing zeroes are not significant (but the zero between two nonzero numbers is).
Just 1. The zeros before the 5 are just placeholders, not significant figures. However, if the number were 0.0500, then there would be 3 sig figs. This is because the extra zeros represent greater accuracy in the measurement.
There are 3 significant figures: 5, 0 and 2. this means that if you were going to simplify the decimal, it would be 0.0502. you can't lose the first 2 zeros because they are important placeholders.
Yes, 0.50 has two significant figures
Two
1 of them.
Just one
Non-zero digits are always significant, so the number 12 has two significant figures.
2 significant figures.
3 significant figures. (The zero after the 5 doesn't count.) 4 significant figures if the zero after the 5 does count. A good way of expressing three thousand four hundred fifty with three, four, or five significant figures is with scientific notation: 3.45 * 103 3.450 * 103 3.4500 * 103
Significant figures are used to receive a more accurate number. To obtain the number you you multiply or divide the quantities, leave as many significant figures in the answer as there are in the quantity with the least number or significant figures. If adding or subtracting quantities, leave the same number of decimal places in the answer as there are in the quantity with the least number of decimal places
