Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
1Year=52weeks
1week=405newspapers
405×52=21,060estimate20,000
the estimated number of papers delivered in a year is (I) 20,000
GIVEN:
Number of papers delivers in 1 week = 405
TO FIND:
Total number of papers delivered in 1 year
SOLUTION:
We can simply solve the problem as under;
Papers delivered by pankaj in one week = 405
we know that,
In 1 year = 52 weeks.
Number of papers delivered in 1 year = 405 × 52 = 21,060
Now to estimate the number.
We will find the digit at ten thousandth place = 2 in 21060
Now, if the digit on the exact right of the ten thousand place, Round it up is greater than or equal to 5 and round down if it is less than 5
1 in 21060
Since the digit is less than 5 we will keep the the digit at ten thousandth place as it is.
Now, all the digit at the right will be 0
So the estimate value of 21,060 is 20,000
Hence ,the the estimate numbers of papers delivered in a year is (I) 20,000
