Answer 6

so now we simply have:

1 + (1 and a half) + 2 + (1 and a half) = ?

Answer 7

6?

Answer 8

hm that's correct but it doesn't match with the answers

Answer 9

Yeah...

Answer 10

if we try rounding up we get closer to 7

Answer 11

ok, so it seems like they want you to round to the nearest whole number instead of the nearest 1/2

Answer 12

0 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 2 = 7 so A

Answer 13

I think it is B...

Answer 14

why do you think so? just curious

Answer 15

Because, 1/3 = 0 , 1 5/8 = 2 , 2/3 = 0 , 1 7/8 = 2, 1 1/2 = 2 that = 6 = 5 rounded, then, 5* 4 = 20 so, 5 and 20 ...

Answer 16

if this is the rounding method you were taught, then yes, please go with B
