Question

When performing calculations, how should counted values such as "3 trials" be treated with respect to significant digits?

Question 11 options:

assumed to have 3 decimal places

assumed to have 2 significant digits

assumed to have 1 significant digit

assumed to have 3 significant digits

counted values are exact and don't enter into evaluations of significant digits for final results.

assumed to have 1 decimal place

assumed to have 2 decimal places

assumed to have 3 decimal places

assumed to have 2 significant digits

assumed to have 1 significant digit

assumed to have 3 significant digits

counted values are exact and don't enter into evaluations of significant digits for final results.

assumed to have 1 decimal place

assumed to have 2 decimal places

The counted values are iwhole numbers as 0, 1, 2, and so on.

So correct choice is "counted values are exact and don't enter into evaluations of significant digits for final results."

Note that: if we get answer of the questions such as "sample size calsulation" in decimal form then we need to round it into whole number.
