The significant figuresof a number are those digits that carry meaning contributing to its precision. This includes all digits except: Certain leading and trailing zeros which are merely placeholders to indicate the scale of the number. Spurious digits introduced, for example, by calculations carried out to greater precision than that of the original data, or measurements reported to a greater precision than the equipment supports.
