OpenStudy (curiousquestions):

Thanks for tagging me. :D What is 25.311 rounded to the nearest whole number?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

26 i think i am really bad at this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

maybe 25

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

5/4 rounding usually goes like this: 25.0 ==> 25 25.1 ==> 25 25.2 ==> 25 25.3 ==> 25 25.4 ==> 25 25.5 ==> 26 25.6 ==> 26 25.7 ==> 26 25.8 ==> 26 25.9 ==> 26

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so yes it would stay the same at 25 Correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then 4.65 would round to 5 Correct?

OpenStudy (curiousquestions):

Correct!

OpenStudy (curiousquestions):

Sorry about the technical difficulties on my end.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know what to do

OpenStudy (curiousquestions):

"Estimate the product of 25.311 * 4.65" Well, we multiply the rounded numbers. So, give me the equation of the rounded numbers.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do i do 25/4 and then round 6.25 to the nearest whole number?

OpenStudy (curiousquestions):

it's 25/5, remember? 4.65 rounds to 5.

OpenStudy (curiousquestions):

and where did you get 6.25?

OpenStudy (curiousquestions):

@amber_nicole
