Question

Liz had attended class everyday since she started school as a kindergartner. she said she had been in school for about 1,000 days. what numbers could be the actual number of school days if liz rounded to the nearest ten ?

Answer 1

it would stay at 1,000
say if the number was 1,057
then the number would round up to 1,060
same as if the number was 1,053
the number would round down to 1,050
since the number ends in 0 there is no rounding to do

Answer 2

Liz attended the school for 710 days.

Explanation:

Let us suppose there are 365 days each year.

So, 1000 days become =
`(1000)/(365)=2.74` years

And each year has 52 weeks out of which 5 days per week is a working day. There are
`52*5=260` working days

Let us suppose there are no holidays so, the number of days Liz attended school =
`2.74*260=712.4` rounding to nearest ten as 710.

Therefore, Liz attended the school for 710 days.
