Lesson Measurement
1
It is important to be honest when reporting a measurement, so that it does not
appear to be more accurate than the equipment used to make the measurement
allows. We can achieve this by controlling the number of digits, or significant
figures, used to report the measurement.
What’s In
Compare and contrast accuracy and precision; random and systematic error.

anywhere from one to five significant figures. Students didn't know this, but there
were three cards with one significant figure, three cards with two significant
figures, etc.
