Answer:

0.002

Step-by-step explanation:

The significant figures of a number are digits that are meaningful in trying to resolve a given value. These are actually digits that carry meaning in a given number.

Let s look at 0.002, the zero before the decimal point carries no real meaning in the number. However, the zeros that precede 2 are all meaningful because the occupy the tenth and hundreth place values.

Hence, there are three significant figure in 0.002.
