What do you mean by significant figures?
✓
Answer
Significant figures are meaningful digits which are known with certainty including the last digit whose value is uncertain. For example, In 11.2546g, there is 6 significant figures but here 11.254 are certain and 6 is uncertain and the uncertainty would be ±1 in the last digit. Hence last uncertain digit is also included in Significant figures.
