Don't get mad at me o.o u shoud at least try. here ill help you understand.
2+4 is what?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yup. And 5/11 and 7/8 are big numbers. True or False.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
True???
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes.
Anything 5 and over u round up. And since 7/8 is not half of 5/11 it cant be answer A. So 6 1/2 is out of the picture.
And D is to high.
and again. There is no halves in the picture. So C. isn't the answer.
So what do you think the answer is?
