their is 1.25 liters. 0.27 liters used. rounding to greatest place, how many liters was used?
Could you reword the question at all? it sounds like your answer is 0.27
Are you sure the question isn't asking how much is left of the 1.25L after 0.27L is taken from it?
Possible answers are : 3 0.3 0.003 0.03
I believe it would be 0.3 if I'm not mistaken
If you can believe it, this is a math question for my stepson.
He is 11
Its a very badly worded question, but based on the answers it gives you, it should be the second choice.
I'm confused as to why its not 0.2 but from the options I would chose 0.3 as well.
Let me verify wording of question
1.25 liters of solution B in lab. John used 0.27 of that amount. Rounding to greatest place, how many liters of solution B did he use?
Anyone. Is this wording clearer?
Yeah I would still say that the answer out of the options supplied would be 0.3
Are you sure the question is not asking : John used 27% of 1.25 ? Because if that is the case the answer is (.27)(1.25) = .3375 = 0.3
