Exact vs. Measured Values<br />
Most of the math we are taught involves using<br />
exact numbers.<br />
Exact numbers are used in science along with<br />
measurements, which are inexact numbers.<br />
Counted objects or defined values are exact.<br />
For example, the average person has 10 fingers.<br />
That’s a count.<br />
There are exactly 1000 mm in 1 m. That’s a defined<br />
value.
