2 Significant Figures IV Floating point subtraction Look at the following problem and determine the answer: Add the following numbers and give the answer to the proper number of significant figures. 1.52! 1.52 Of course it is zero but which zero? HUH? What say?
3 Significant Figures IV Floating point subtraction Look at the following problem and determine the answer: Add the following numbers and give the answer to the proper number of significant figures. 1.52! 1.52 Of course it is zero but which zero? OK. Let s follow the rules.
4 Significant Figures IV Floating point subtraction Look at the following problem and determine the answer: Add the following numbers and give the answer to the proper number of significant figures. 1.52! 1.52 Lining these numbers up: 1.52!1.52
5 Significant Figures IV Floating point subtraction Look at the following problem and determine the answer: Add the following numbers and give the answer to the proper number of significant figures. 1.52! and subracting: 1.52! we obtained 0.00 to the nearest 0.0x or in scientific notation: 0 10!2
6 Significant Figures IV Scientific notation For numbers that are expressed in scientific notation or have initially different number of absolution precisions, the rules do not change. Consider the following problem: What is the result of subtracting from ? Making sure one has the same factor of 10 and lining up the decimal points ! ! ! rounding =>!

Consider the following problem: What is the result of subtracting from ? Making sure one has the same factor of 10 and lining up the decimal points ! ! ! truncating =>!
8 Significant Figures IV Scientific notation For numbers that are expressed in scientific notation or have initially different number of absolution precisions, the rules do not change. Consider the following problem: What is the result of subtracting from ? The number! !4 is not in scientific notation and the negative sign is not necessary. So the final answer is: Answer = 0 10!6
9 Significant Figures IV Insignificance Another problem involves the concept of insignificance. (Again, do not confuse the word with everyday language. It does not mean the same as unimportant.) Consider the following problem. Add the following numbers: To determine rounding:
