HELP!

Do units affect significant figures? For example, I know that the number 5600 has two significant figures. But if I wrote it as 5600 L, would the unit "L" count as a sig fig? Please help me!!

I don’t believe that it would matter as L is just a variable/unit of measurement, it is not a number relative to the number it is describing.
