Question

M is the largest number which when rounded off to the nearest hundred gives 63500. N is the smallest number which when rounded off to the nearest thousand gives 150000. What is the sum of M and N

Answer 1

M = largest no. rounded to 63500

63550 rounded sum = 63600

Predecessor of 63550 = 63549

63549 rounded sum = 63500

Hence , M = 63549

Now,

N = smallest no. that when rounded off to nearest thousands gives 150000

14,99,500 when rounded to nearest thousands = 1500000

We know that ,

M = 63549

N= 1499500

63549 + 1499500

= 1563049

So , M+ N = 1563049
