Rules for determining the significant figures in addition are that the result cannot have more digits to the right of the decimal point than either of the original numbers.
So, in this calculation 0.0125 + 0.7864 + 0.0215, since the least precise number of decimal places in each term is four, the answer is four significant figures, i.e.0.8204.
