Figure: appreciate it! (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

digit

'figure' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'appreciate it' is the wordplay.
'appreciate' becomes 'dig' (to dig can mean to appreciate or 'get').
'dig'+'it'='DIGIT'

(Other definitions for digit that I've seen before include "E.g. toe" , "One in ten, say" , "one's given?" , "Single number" , "A character" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
