significant figures as there are in the number whose logarithm you are taking.
iv. When taking antilogarithms, the resulting number should have as many significant figures as the mantissa in the logarithm
v. If calculation involves a combination of mathematical operations having different significant figures, it is customary practice to carry
out the calculation using all figures, and then go back and figure out how many significant figures the final result should have
