Identify the digits in the number 0.080. The digits are 0, 8, and 0.
Recall the rules for significant figures: Leading zeros (zeros before the first nonzero digit) are not significant, but trailing zeros after a decimal point are significant.
In 0.080, the first zero is a leading zero and is not significant.
The digits 8 and the trailing zero after it are significant because they come after the decimal point and after a nonzero digit.
Therefore, the number 0.080 has 3 significant figures.
