Question

Truncate the decimal expansion of 33 to find the best approximation.

A) 5.7 < 33 < 5.8
B) 5.7 < 33 < 5.75
C) 5.74 < 33 < 5.75
D) 5.745 < 33 < 5.750

Answer 1

I am assuming the value to be -33 rather than just 33
So the correct value of -33 = 5.74456264654 Now checking options A is not possible cause 5.744 can never be rounded off as 5.8 B has difference too large C is correct range D 5.744 is not in given range so it is wrong So answer is option C
