Answer:

D. 4

Explanation:

Step1: Identify non - zero digits

Non - zero digits 1 and 5 are significant.

Step2: Identify zeros between non - zero digits

The zero between 1 and 5 (0 in 1.050) is significant.

Step3: Identify trailing zeros in a number with a decimal point

The trailing zero after 5 (the last 0 in 1.050) is significant as the number has a decimal point. So in total, there are 4 significant figures.
