|
Are all nonzero numbers significant?
|
Yes.
|
|
Trailing zeros after a nonzero ____ significant.
i.e. 80 i.e. 7,700 |
Trailing zeros after a nonzero are NOT significant.
i.e. 80 = 1 sig fig i.e. 7,700 = 2 sig figs |
|
Leading zeros ____ significant.
i.e. 0.01 i.e. 0.00045 |
Leading zeros are NOT significant.
i.e. 0.01 = 1 sig fig i.e. 0.00045 = 2 sig figs |
|
Zeros trailing a nonzero # ____ significant.
i.e. 1.00 i.e .0200 |
Zeros trailing a nonzero # ARE significant.
i.e. 1.00 = 3 sig figs i.e 0.0200 = 3 sig figs |
|
Zeros trapped between nonzero #s _____ significant.
i.e. 4033 |
Zeros trapped between nonzero #s ARE significant.
i.e. 4033 = 4 sig figs |
|
How many significant figures should you have for the following:
Multiplication/Division Addition/Subtraction |
Multiplication/Division = The same # as the fewest sig figs
Addition/Subtraction = The same # as the fewest decimal places |
|
Rounding Rules
When do you round down or up? 81.15 81.25 |
Round up when # preceding is ODD.
Round down when # preceding is EVEN. 81.15 = 81.2 81.25 = 81.2 [Do not go to 81.3] |
