Question

Over the past few years, Mitchell has made 99 trips to visit the amusement park. He drove 6,870.1 kilometers in all. To the nearest hundredth of a kilometer, how far did Mitchell drive on each trip?

Answer 1

69.39 kilometers

Explanation:

total kilometres driven on each trip = total kilometres driven on all trips / total number of visits

6,870.1 / 99 = 69.394949

To the nearest hundredth means we are rounding off the third number after the decimal point. The second number after the decimal is the hundredth. The third number is less than 4, so zero would be added to the preceding number

69.39 kilometers
