Read the article below about Burj Khalifa and in every number stated in the article, determine number of significant
figures (SF)!

The Burj Khalifa is one of the most iconic buildings illuminating Dubai’s skyline.
Designed by Chicago-based architectural, urban planning and engineering firm Skidmore, Owings, and Merrill
(SOM), who are also behind Manhattan House and Willis Tower, it was an ambitious undertaking.
Famed American architect Adrian Smith was responsible for the vision and design.

When work began on the Burj Khalif in January 2004, many of the project’s details, including its height, remained
shrouded in mystery. When it opened in January 2010, the team behind the Burj Khalifa revealed it had broken not
just one but a staggering eight world records.
As well as surpassing the Taipei 101, formerly known as the Taipei World Finance Centre in Taiwan, as the tallest
building in the world, it also holds the record for the world’s highest occupied floor, the world’s highest outdoor
observatory deck and the longest elevator travel distance.
It stands at a dizzying 0,000828 megametres ( 3 SF), or 2,717 feet ( 4 SF) tall and
163 floors high. It also boasts two observatory decks. ‘At the Top’ stands at an impressive 45200 centimetres (
5 SF), while ‘At the Top Sky’ is 0,5550 kilometres ( 4 SF) in height, making it
the highest observatory deck in the world.

The Burj Khalifa is home to over 902 ( 3 SF) residential units and can hold up to 10,001 people (
5 SF) at any given time.
As well as private residents, it houses businesses ranging from real estate to construction firms, Armani hotels,
offices, and fine dining. With its proximity to The Dubai Mall, it attracts legions of tourists, with almost seven
million people visiting it in 2019.
What makes The Burj Khalifa such a standout building is its unique design and hybrid nature. As a multi-purpose
construction, it captures the variety of modern Dubai, highlighting the city as a leader in the world of construction,
business, and tourism.
