All standard LaTeX document classes generate chapter, section, subsection, figure, table, etc. numbers as defined by ISO 2145.

However, users can change style settings to match the ISO standard.
Instead, formulas may be placed on their own line using < math display = block >. For instance, the formula above was typeset using <math display=block> \int _ 0 ^ \pi \sin x \, dx.</math>.

Overusing tables, especially with complex coding, can make pages harder to edit and maintain, so careful consideration should be given to their structure. Maintain accessibility when creating tables by using specific table tags to help users navigate the data and captions to clearly identify and describe tables. Avoid relying solely on ...
Only figures are used with unit symbols (12 min not twelve min); but figures or words may be used with unit names (12 minutes or twelve minutes), subject to the provisions above. Other numbers.
