Answer 2

Question:

Which of the following is closest to 27.8 x 9.6

a) 280

b) 300

c) 2800

d) 3000

Answer:

(a) 280

Step-by-step explanation:

Round each number to the nearest whole number:

27.8 = 28

(Since 8 is bigger than 5, we round up by adding 1 to the ones place)

9.6 = 10

(Since 6 is bigger than 5, we round up by adding 1 to the ones place)

Therefore:

27.8 x 9.6 ≈ 28 x 10 = 280

Answer: 280
