Question

The size of a rectangular photo frame is 12 11/16cm by 8 3/4cm. Which of the following gives the product of these dimensions rounded to the nearest whole number of centimeters

answers
A) 12 cm x 8 cm
B) 12 cm x 9 cm
C) 13 cm x 8 cm
D) 13 cm x 9 cm

Answer 1

D

Explanation:

the answer can't be A or C because we know that 8 3/4 rounds to 9

so we have to figure out if 12 11/16 is closer to 12 or 13

anything above 8/16 should round up; therefore, 11/16 should round the 12 to be 13
