Question

PLEASE HELP ME

The table shows the weights of 3 samples from an experiment.

Which estimate is reasonable for the total weight of all 3 samples?

A. 1.25 g

B. 3.75 g

C. 5.5 g

D. 6.5 g

Sample Number Weight (g)

1 1.25050

2 2.50055

3 2.74099

Answer 1

I got 6.49204 but you will need to round so D 6.5

I added all of the numbers up

Answer 2

Answer: D. 6.5 g

Explanation:

From the given table , weight of sample 1 = 1.25050 g

Weight of sample 2 = 2.50055 g

Weight of sample 1 = 2.74099 g

The total weight of all the 3 samples=
`1.25050\ g+2.50055\ g+2.74099\ g`

Therefore, the total weight of all the 3 samples=
`6.49204\ g`

Since,
`6.49204\approx6.5`

Thus, the estimated total weight of all 3 samples= 6.5 g
