A set of measurements is limited by the precision of the least-sensitive instrument
used in the experiments. The mass is known to five significant figures, but there
are only three significant figures in the volume. Thus only three significant figures

This leads to a convenient rule of thumb that if a set of experimental data are
specified to N significant figures, a result obtained by combining the .data will
also be valid to N significant figures. However, this simple rule must be used with

The number 2.34 g has only three significant figures and implies the 4 is
uncertain, when in fact the balance reading indicated the 4 is certain. In the case

Barron's SAT Subject Test in Chemistry
For instance, if an instrument that measures to the nearest mile is used, the
number 3,000 miles has four significant figures. If, however, the instrument in
question records miles to the nearest thousands, there is only one significant
figure.

Competition Science Vision
Significant figures in the measured value of a physical quantity tell the number of
digits in which we have confidence. Larger the number of significant figures
obtained in a measurement, greater is the accuracy of the measurement. The
reverse ...
