Answer 1

Given :

________ is 1/10 of (186.79 - 29.09). Round that answer to the nearest tenths and compare it to 15.7. Whichever number is bigger- add that to the difference between 34.45 and 12.6.

To Find :

The final answer.

Solution :

First we need to solve 1/10 of (186.79 - 29.09).

So,
`((186.79-29.09))/(10)= 15.77`

The equivalent of above expression is 15.77 which is greater than 15.7 .

So, we need to add 15.77 to the difference between 34.45 and 12.6 .

`=( 34.45 - 12.6 ) + 15.77\\\\= 37.62`
