explain whether rounding or compatible numbers gives a closer estimate for the product of 48 times 123 equals 5904

1 answer:

3 0

The compatible numbers (numbers you can easily use and calculate in your head) for 48 and 123 would be 50 and 100. 50 x 100= 5,000. Rounding would be 50 and 120. 50 x 120= 6,000. So rounding would provide a closer estimate.

MArishka [77]

Find the volume of each tank by multiplying the length by the width by the height:

Terry: 14 x 12 x 10 = 1680 cubic cm.

Bob: 13 x 15 x 8 = 1560 cubic cm

Terry’s aquarium is larger and can hold more water.

Translation of the length of a rectangle is 2 feet greater than twice its width. If the perimeter is 25 feet, fine the width

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle=(length+width)×2

Let W=x, L=2x+2

25=[(2x+2)+x]×2

25=[2x+2+x]×2

Solve for x

25/2=3x+2

25/2-2=3x

25-4/2=3x

21\2=3x=7/2=x

2) Shane puts aside $40 per week for his monthly car payment. He earns $320 per week.

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

320 divided by 40 = 8

100 divided by 8 = 12.5

100% is 320 dollars, which means that 40 dollars is 1/8 of 320. And 1/8 of 100 is 12.5%
