What numbers are located on an NFPA 704 marking system?

Explanation:
NFPA 704 uses a numeric scale from 0 to 4 in the three hazard sections of the diamond (health in blue, flammability in red, and reactivity in yellow). Each number indicates increasing hazard, with 0 meaning no hazard and 4 indicating severe hazard. The white section covers special hazards, not numbers. So the numbers that appear on the marking system range from 0 to 4.
