    When adding or subtracting quantities, the number of significant figures is rounded off to the same decimal place as the least precise piece of data. For example, when subtracting 23.385 cm from 18472.3952 cm, the answer will be rounded to the third decimal place, leaving our answer to be 18449.010 cm. It is important to note that defined quantities, such as the number of people at a table, or minutes in an hour,are not subjected to the rules of significant figures because they would not fall victim to erroneous measurements.…
