Answer:

4 significant figures

Step-by-step explanation:

Significant figures are the units/digits within a number that make the number more accurate and precise.

All digits (except for 0) are always significant. Therefore, all the digits in 43.55 are significant. Since there are 4 digits in the given number, there are 4 significant figures.
