<p>has three significant figures (and hence indicates that the number is precise to the nearest ten).<br/>
*Less often, using a closely related convention, the last significant figure of a number may be <a href="page.php?w=underline">underline</a>d; for example, "1<span style="text-decoration: underline;">3</span>00" has two significant figures.<br/>
*A decimal point may be placed after the number; for example "1300." indicates specifically that trailing zeros are meant to be significant.</p>

<p>As the conventions above are not in general use,</p><p>
