47 is close to 50 657 is close to 650

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do we divide those?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

no, we add them since we want the total miles traveled

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but 700 hundred isnt an answer choice. the choices are : 650,690,710,750

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

then they want you to round up to 660 instead of round down to 650

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

660+50 = 710

OMG!! THANK YOU SO MUCHHHHH.:)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

but imo, it's better to round to 650 since I think it's a "cleaner" number
