How to understand significant digits I know that leading zeros aren’t significant, but can someone explain more about significant digits i’m trying to understand it

Answer 1

Hi!

Yes so all zeros that occur between any two non zero digits are significant.

For example, 108.0097 contains 7 significant digits. All zeros that are on the right of a decimal point and also to the left of a non-zero digit is never significant.

For example, 0.00798 contained three significant digits.
