A scale measures weight to the nearest 0.1 pounds

we have to find the most appropriate way to report weigh using this scale

we are given with a few no. of weighs

now lets discuss about weight one by one

200 pounds-it is looking a rounded figure

152 pounds-it is again looking a rounded figure

152.127-it is .not possible because its nearest measure is only 0.1

152.2-it is looking most appropriate as it has one decimal and the given weight scale is also correct to one decimal place
