Question 21 • 26-27 Ignite Technical Math-Financial Math - MA2007
Leading zeros to the left of the first nonzero digit only show where the decimal point is; they do not indicate measured precision. For example, in 0.0042, the leading zeros are not significant, while 4 and 2 are. Nonzero digits, zeros between nonzero digits, and trailing zeros to the right of a decimal point are significant.
