1) No, it is not a proper answer; you do not know whether the professor meant homework problem number 20 or 20 homework problems. Twenty is a quantity and does not make sense without a unit

Middle Zeros: Zeros that appear between other nonzero digits are ALWAYS significant.

Leading Zero: Zeros that appear in front of all nonzero digits are NEVER significant.

Trailing Zero with a decimal point: Trailing zeros in a number with a decimal point are significant.

Trailing Zero without a decimal point: Trailing zero in a number without a decimal points are ambiguous.

5) A conversion factor is a fraction whose numerator and denominator. The system is set up will result in the units in numerator and denominator cancels leaving behind the desire unit.
