Question

The weight of an apple is 150g, rounded to the nearest 5g. what is the lower bound and upper bound?

Answer 1

The lower bound is 147.5 and the upper bound is 152.5.

Given the weight of an apple 150 g rounded to the nearest 5g.

We have to find lower bound and upper bound.

Lower bound is an element less than or equal to all the elements in a given set.

Upper bound is an element greater than all the elements in a given set.

Lower bound= Number 1- (Number nearest to  which number 1 is rounded)/2

Upper bound=Number 1+(number nearest to which number 1 is rounded)/2

Weight of an apple =150 g

Lower bound=150-5/2

=150-2.5

=147.5

Upper bound=150+5/2

=150+2.5

=152.5

Hence the lower bound is 147.5 and upper bound is 152.5.
