Question

Jesse practices the trumpet for a total of 165 minutes during the first week of school. He practices for 245 minutes during the second week. A. Estimate the total amount of time Jesse practices by rounding to the nearest 10 minutes.

Answer 1

410 minutes

Explanation:

Given that:

Time for which Jesse practices trumpet in the first week = 165 minutes

Time for which Jesse practices trumpet in the second week = 245 minutes

To find:

The total amount of time rounded to the nearest 10 minutes.

Solution:

To find the total amount of time for which Jesse practices, we need to add the time taken for practice in the first week and the time taken for practice in the second week.

Therefore, total time taken = 165 + 245 = 410 minutes

It is already rounded off to the nearest 10 minutes.

Therefore, the answer is:

Total amount of time for which Jesse practices = 410 minutes
