5 is in the middle… so we could go up or down 5 is in the middle… so we could go up or down. But we need a method that everyone agrees to. So think about sport: we should have the same number of players on each team, right? 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 are on team “down”. 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 are on team “up”.

Significant Figures If you read that the attendance at a football match was exactly 41,786 and a friend asked you about the attendance, you would probably say “about 40,000”. In this case you are giving an approximate answer to one significant figure.

Significant Figures Find the first ‘non-zero’ digit in your number – this is your first significant figure (and every digit after this is significant, even zeros). Count along the correct number of digits (same as the number of significant figures you are rounding too) and round normally. Check your answer makes sense – if you have rounded 32745 to 2 sig. figs. and got an answer of 38 that isn’t sensible. Your answers should be of a similar size to your original number.
