Question

Choose the situation in which the use of approximate numbers is most appropriate.

A)
planting trees in your yard
B)
ordering chairs for a kitchen table
purchasing barbeque to serve at a party
D
ordering uniforms for the high school basketbalt team

Answer 1

I would say that A is your answer.

I think this because you would not need to have any specific number of trees in your yard, but you would need a specific number of things for all of your other options.

Explanation:

You probably wouldn't approximate on how many chairs you put in a kitchen. What if you have a 5-member family and you aproxomate the chair number to 4. that would be useless so B is wrong.

C is wrong because you are only getting 1 barbaque. no approximation is nessisary for one item.

D is certainly wrong because you wouldn't want to leave out a uniform, that would mean one member of the basketball team may not get one.

Answer 2

I good with D because i think it’s for Sure the right answer
