Identify each of the following as measured or exact and give the number of significant figures (SFs) in each measured number:

a. The mass of a neonate is $1.607$kg.

b. The Daily Value (DV) for iodine for an infant is $130$mcg.

c. There are $4.02\times {10}^6$red blood cells in a blood sample.

d. In November, $23$babies were born in a hospital.

We have been given that the mass of a neonate is $1.607$kg.

Measured numbers are the results of measuring a quantity such as our height or distance. Due to measurement techniques, their values aren't exact.

An exact number can be calculated with absolute accuracy. They can't be simplified or reduced.

Here, it is a measured number and there are four significant digits.
