Question

1.24$

6.43$
2.13$
with these numbers i need to round to the nearest dollar (SHOW WORK PLS) estimate total cost.

Answer 1

$1.00

$6.00

$2.00

The estimated cost is $9.00

Explanation:

1.24 = The 2 in 1.24 is smaller than 5 so you round down

6.43 = The 4 in 6.43 is smaller than 5 so you round down

2.13 = The 1 in 2.13 is smaller than 5 so you round down

Answer 2

$10

Explanation:

1.24+6.43+2.13= 9.8

9.8 rounded to the nearest dollar is $10.

You can do it a different way, rounding the numbers before adding.

this would be:

1.3+6.4+2.1= 9.8

Either way, you get the same number. 9.8

And 9.8 rounded to the nearest dollar is $10

All the best, -Crispin
