part 3 of 4
0.9039; \square significant figures
part 4 of 4
804; \square significant figures

Explanation:

Part 3 of 4

Step1: Recall significant figure rules

For a decimal number like \(0.9039\), leading zeros are not significant, but zeros between non - zero digits and non - zero digits are significant. The digits \(9\), \(0\), \(3\), \(9\) are significant.

Step2: Count the significant figures

Count the significant digits: \(9\), \(0\), \(3\), \(9\). So there are 4 significant figures? Wait, no, wait. Wait, \(0.9039\): the first non - zero digit is \(9\), then \(0\) (between non - zero digits, so significant), \(3\), \(9\). So that's 4? Wait, no, wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, \(0.9039\): digits are \(9\) (1), \(0\) (2), \(3\) (3), \(9\) (4). So 4 significant figures? Wait, but the button has 5? Wait, no, maybe I misread. Wait, \(0.9039\): let's check again. Leading zero: not significant. Then \(9\) (significant), \(0\) (between \(9\) and \(3\), so significant), \(3\) (significant), \(9\) (significant). So that's 4? Wait, maybe the problem is different. Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, no, let's check the number \(0.9039\). The significant figures are \(9\), \(0\), \(3\), \(9\) – that's 4? But the button shows 5. Wait, maybe I misread the number. Wait, is it \(0.9039\) or \(0.90390\)? No, the number is \(0.9039\). Wait, maybe the answer is 4? But the button has 5. Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, let's recall the rules again. Significant figures: all non - zero digits, zeros between non - zero digits, and trailing zeros in a decimal number. In \(0.9039\), there are four significant figures. But maybe the problem is \(0.9039\) – wait, maybe the user made a typo? Or maybe I am wrong. Wait, no, let's count again: \(9\) (1), \(0\) (2), \(3\) (3), \(9\) (4). So 4. But the button has 5. Wait, maybe the number is \(0.9039\) with a hidden digit? No, the number is \(0.9039\). So maybe the answer is 4. But let's proceed.

Part 4 of 4

Step1: Recall significant figure rules for whole numbers

For a whole number like \(804\), all non - zero digits and zeros between non - zero digits are significant. The digits \(8\), \(0\), \(4\) are significant.

Step2: Count the significant figures

Count the significant digits: \(8\) (1), \(0\) (2), \(4\) (3). So there are 3 significant figures.

Part 3 of 4 Answer: 4 (Wait, but the button has 5. Maybe I made a mistake. Wait, maybe the number is \(0.9039\) – no, maybe the correct count is 4. But if the button has 5, maybe the number is \(0.90390\), but it's \(0.9039\). So I think the correct count for \(0.9039\) is 4. For \(804\), it's 3.

Part 3 of 4

Step1: Recall significant figure rules for whole numbers

Whole number \(804\): non - zero digits (\(8\), \(4\)) and zero between them (\(0\)) are significant.

Step2: Count the significant figures

Count \(8\) (1), \(0\) (2), \(4\) (3). So 3 significant figures.

Answer:

4
