What are Significant Figures?

Significant figures (sig figs) are the meaningful digits in a measurement. They indicate the precision of a value. Rules for counting sig figs:

How to Round to Significant Figures

To round 0.004567 to 3 significant figures:

  1. Identify the first significant figure: 4 (the leading zeros don't count)
  2. Count 3 significant figures from there: 4, 5, 6
  3. Look at the next digit (7): since 7 ≥ 5, round up the last kept digit
  4. Result: 0.00457

When rounding large numbers, use scientific notation to avoid ambiguity. For example, 12,345 rounded to 3 sig figs = 1.23 × 10⁴ = 12,300.

Sig Figs in Calculations

When performing calculations, the result should be rounded to match the precision of the least precise input:

Frequently Asked Questions

How many sig figs does 0.00450 have?

0.00450 has 3 significant figures: 4, 5, and 0. The leading zeros are not significant (they are place holders), but the trailing zero after 5 IS significant because it follows a non-zero digit after a decimal point.

Are trailing zeros significant?

Trailing zeros are significant if they appear after a decimal point (e.g., 2.500 has 4 sig figs). Without a decimal point, trailing zeros are ambiguous (e.g., 2500 could have 2, 3, or 4 sig figs). Scientific notation eliminates this ambiguity: 2.5 × 10³ clearly has 2 sig figs.

Why do sig figs matter in science?

Sig figs communicate the precision of a measurement. Reporting more sig figs than your instrument can measure implies false precision. For example, measuring a pencil with a ruler marked in mm and reporting 14.2345 cm is misleading — you can only reliably claim 14.2 cm (3 sig figs).
