how does knowing where the halfway point is help you find which hundred thousand 138,202 is closest to? Explain

8 0

Knowing the halfway point (which is 5) helps you so you know wither or not the hundred thousands place goes high or stays the same.
So, for this problem 138,202 would round out to 100,000 because the 3 is below 5 so the hundred thousands place stays the same.

Answer:

100,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The given number is 138, 202. We have to find the number hundred thousand which is close to the given number.

Here the hundred thousand place digit is 1.

<u>1</u>38,202

Now look for the next right digit which is 3.

3 is not halfway mark (5) so we have to keep the hundred thousand place as it is and place 0's to the rest of the places.

Note: If the digit right to the hundred thousand place is equal or more than halfway mark, we can add 1 with the hundred thousand place.

So, 138,202 = 100,000 since the digit right to the hundred thousand place is not halfway mark.

Therefore, the answer is 100,000

Answer:

you can make 14 muffins

Step-by-step explanation:

To get this answer you first need to know that 1 cup makes 8 muffins. Next know that there's 1 3/4 cups of flour. Because you know that 1 cup makes 8 muffins you need to figure out how many muffins 3/4 a cup of flour can make. To do this you divide 8 by 4. Hence 8 divided by 4 is 2. So know you know that for every 1/4 cup you can make 2 muffins. Now since there's 3/4 cup of flour you then multiply 2 by 3 which is 6. Now you have to add 1 cup ( 8 muffins) to 3/4 cup ( 6 muffins ) of flour which then equals 14. You then get the answer , 1 3/4 cups of flour can make 14 muffins. Hope this helped ;)
