Show transcript
It is possible to use rounding and place value to know the size of a number without knowing the actual number. The first non-zero digit of a number is the first significant figure. You can identify the place value of the first significant figure. A number can be located on a number line and numbers to 1 significant figure either side of it represented. Any integer can be rounded to one significant figure and a number line can help with this.
