Final answer:
To calculate 150.3% of 272.6, we turn the percentage into a decimal and multiply it by 272.6, getting 410.138, which is already rounded to the nearest thousandth.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find 150.3% of 272.6 and round to the nearest thousandth, we convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100, which gives us 1.503. We then multiply this decimal by 272.6:
1.503 × 272.6 = 410.138
The calculator answer would be 410.138, but we need to round this number to the nearest thousandth. Since the fourth decimal place is not greater than 5, we do not round up, and the final answer remains 410.138.
