Use rounding or compatible numbers to estimate the sum. 222+203
2 answers:
The sum of 222 + 203 by using rounding to compatible number is 420
<h3>Further explanation</h3>Rounding results on integers can be used to estimate or determine the results of a calculation. Estimates can be used as a reference or comparison in determining the truth of the results of a calculation
To rounding integers to the nearest hundreds, look at the tens
1. If the tens are less than 5 (1-4), then the unit number is omitted
Example: 735 ---> 700
2. If the tens are 5 to 9 then the tens are rounded up to 1 hundred
Example: 279 ----> 300
Whereas compatible numbers are the numbers that are easy to add, subtract, multiply, or divide. The value of Compatible numbers will be close to the actual numbers
So We can round the numbers to the nearest ten, hundred, etc. to make them compatible numbers
In the summation operation above we will round out the numbers:
- 1. number 222
we round the number to the nearest ten become 220
- 2. number 203
we round the number to the nearest ten become 200
So the sum results become:
220 + 200 = 420

SIDE LENGTH OF TRIANGLE: 2.14 inches
SIDE LENGTH OF HEXAGON: 6 inches
To solve this problem, we know that the shapes have equal sides as it states “equilateral triangle”. A triangle has 3 sides and a hexagon has 6 sides. We are told the perimeters are the same so you can set their perimeters equal to each other to solve for x. You would get this : 3(1.4x + 2) = 6(0.5x +2)
With basic algebra you would get x= 5
Then you substitute that value into the length sides of the triangle and hexagon. For the triangle you would approx get 2.14 inches and for the hexagon 6 inches
