The Learning Goal for this assignment is:
Determine appropriate and consistent standards of measurement
for the data to be collected in a survey or experiment.
Notes Section:
There are three rules a numbers needs to have,
to be considered of having significant figures in them.
1.) Non-zero digits are always significant.
Ex. 46.78 and 3.94 these are all significant figures.
2.) Any zeros between two significant digits are significant.
Ex. 960 and 70050 have zeros that are all significant figures.
3.) A final zero or trailing zeros in the decimal portion only are significant.
Ex. 0.07030 and 0.00800 have zeros at the end that significant figures.
So the zeros in the beginning and in the middle of 7 and and 3 are NOT
significant figures.
Or in the second example, the zeros in the beginning are not significant.
