First look at the formula:

rating WM-Test = base 2600 + (2 x LQ) - [5 x (GZ : 100)]

base=2600 , given range is set by the authors: 2500-2800

-> indicates 2 significant figures

LQ range 0-100

-> indicates 2 significant figures

GZ_min= 100x1s/60     -> [5x (1.6:100)] term_min = 0,08
GZ_max= 100x1200s/60  -> [5x(2000:100)] term_max = 100

-> indicates max. 2 significant figures
