Question

Hint: is the picture

Alonso estimated the distance across
a river as 1232 meters. What is the
approximate distance across the river to
the nearest thousandth of a meter?

Answer 1

1232.000

Explanation:

Estimated distance across the river=1,232 meters

Find the approximate distance across the river to

the nearest thousandth of a meter

Note: Thousandth is having 3 values after the decimal point

This means we will round 1,232 meters to the nearest thousandth

1,232 is an whole number and decimal point can only be added at the end like this 1,232.

So we need 3 values after the decimal point.

We must add only values that wouldn't change the original 1,232 meters.

Therefore, zero (0) will be added

1232.000

Is to the nearest thousandth
