NOTE: To propagate uncertainty when multiplying or dividing two measurements, count the number of significant figures in each. Your result should be reported to the number of significant figures in the measurement having the lesser number of significant figures.

Rounding a number to N significant figures is similar to rounding to N digits after the decimal point, except that we start counting from the beginning of the number. For example, 71.25150 rounded to three significant figures is 71.3, to four is 71.25, and to one is 70. (If the N + 1 digit is 5 followed by nothing or by zeros only, use the 'round half to even' tiebreaking rule).

NOTE: To propagate uncertainty when multiplying or dividing two measurements, count the number of significant figures in each. Your result should be reported to the number of significant figures in the measurement having the lesser number of significant figures. Note that 'significant figures' are different than 'decimal places'; see rules at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Significant_figures&oldid=1114415444#Identifying_significant_figures .
Rounding a number to N significant figures is similar to rounding to N digits after the decimal point, except that we start counting from the beginning of the number. For example, 71.25150 rounded to three significant figures is 71.3, to four is 71.25, and to one is 70. (If the N + 1 digit is 5 followed by nothing or by zeros only, use the 'round half to even' tiebreaking rule).
