Example Question #1062 : Numbers And Operations

Round 2342 to the nearest hundred.

Possible Answers:

$\dpi{100} 2340$

$\dpi{100} 2000$

$\dpi{100} 2400$

$\dpi{100} 2300$

Correct answer:

$\dpi{100} 2300$

Explanation:

First, identify which number is in the hundreds place. The hundreds place is 3 places to the left of the decimal. In this case, 3 is in the hundreds place.

If the numbers to the right of the 3 are 50 or more, then we will round it up to 4. If they are less than 50, we will leave the 3 the same. Here, we have 42, so the 3 will remain the same. The two numbers to the right become zeroes.

We round 342 down to 300. The 2 in the thousands place remains the same.

Find the sum of 2.4, 55, and 6.21.

Possible Answers:

636.1

63.61

63.51

7.00

700

Correct answer:

63.61

Explanation:

To find the sum, you need to add. Line up all numbers vertically. Since one number has a decimal to the tenths place, one has a decimal to the hundredths place, and one has no decimal, be extra careful to line up the digits correctly! To help you, add a zero to the end of 2.4, and add two zeroes to the end of 55 so that all the digits line up correctly.

$\begin{matrix} &\ 2.40 \\ & 55.00\\ + & \ 6.21 \end{matrix}$

Now, add down each column, starting on the right side and moving to the left.

2.40 + 55.00+ 6.21 = 63.61

The sum is 63.61.
