Question

Estimate 58.311+49.35 by first rounding each number to the nearest whole number.

Answer 1

≈107

Explanation:

58.311 will round down since 0.311 is less than half or 0.5. It will become 58. 49.35 will also round down since 0.35 is less than 0.5. This will be 49. 58+49=107. Since 107 is not the exact answer, you will use the approximately sign, or ≈.
