A significant figure is defined as :

1.	The total number of digits in a number, including the last digit that represents the uncertainty of the result.
2.	The total number of digits in a number, excluding the last digit, which represents the uncertainty of the result.
3.	The total number of digits in a number including the last digit that represents the certainty of the result.
4.	The total number of last digits that represents the uncertainty of the result.
