Hi there!

Sometimes, like you said, you might don't get the exact answer when you justified your answer. In this case, you need to take the nearest number. So if you got 11 then 12 is the nearest number, just go for it.

Or go back and start over and see if you didn't miss anything.

I hope this helps!
