Answer 1

Hlo

this is is the answer

32.9×7.5=246.75

A.259-246.75=12.25

B.246.75-232=14.75

C.246.75-220=26.75

D.265-246.75=18.25

there fore 259 is closest to 32.9 ×7.5

therefore option A is the correct ans

hope it helps you

Answer 2

Answer: Option A- 259 is the closest to the resultant.

Step-by-step explanation:

By solving the given problem,

32.9 × 7.5 we get the resultant as 246.75

To determine which of the options is closest to the resultant we find out the difference between the resultant and the given numbers

For option A: The difference is 12.25

For option B: The difference is 14.75

For option C: The difference is 26.75

For option D: The difference is 18.25

As observed from the above-mentioned differences, the difference between the first number/option which is 259 and the resultant - 246.75 is the least among all and hence it is the closest.
