2.6,0.260,0.002600,2.6000

Explanation:

  1. 2.6 has 2 significant figures.
  2. 0.260=3,because first 0 is not calculated.
  3. 0.002600=4,zeros to the left of the first non-zero digit in a number are not significant.
  4. 2.6000=5,zeros to the right of the decimal point are significant.

Answer:

2.6 = 2 significant figures

0.260 = 3 significant figures

0.002600 = 4 significant figures

2.6000 = 5 significant figures

Explanation:

  • Significant figures are the number of digits that add to the correctness of a value, frequently a measurement.
  • Any two non-zero digits that are separated by a zero are important.
  • For instance, the number 108.0097 has seven significant digits.
  • Every zero that is both to the right and left of a non-zero digit and the decimal point is never meaningful.
  • For instance, the number 0.00798 had three significant digits.

Rules for significant figures:

  • Every integer that is not zero IS important.
  • Zeros in the intervals between two non-zero digits ARE important.
  • Leading zeros don't matter at all.
  • Right after the decimal, the trailing zeros ARE important.
  • The last two digits of a whole number with a decimal representation are important.
