|
The number 40 shows ____ significant digit(s).
|
One. In the number 40, 4 is significant, because it is a nonzero digit. The 0 is only a place holder and is not significant.
|
|
The number 602 shows ____ significant digit(s).
|
Three. In the number 602, the 6 and the 2 are significant, because they are nonzero digits. The 0 is also significant because it is between two significant digits.
