Darion was raising a calf for the state fair when he first got his calf it weighed 52.65 lb when the fair arrived Darien's calf weighed more in 750 lb how much weight did Darien's calf gain give three possible weights Darien's calf could be

Answer 1

The three possible weights Darien's calf could have gained is 697.35 lb, 697 lb, 697.4 lb

Solution:

Given that,

Darion first got his calf it weighed 52.65 lb

When the fair arrived Darien's calf weighed more in 750 lb

To find: Weight gained by calf

Weight gained by calf = final weight - initial weight

Weight gained by calf = 750 - 52.65

Weight gained by calf = 697.35

Give three possible weights Darien's calf could be:

`697.35\\\\Round\ off\ to\ nearest\\\\697\\\\ Round\ off\ to\ one\ decimal\ place\\\\697.4`

Thus the three possible weights Darien's calf could have gained is 697.35 lb, 697 lb, 697.4 lb
