Answer:3
Step-by-step explanation:
Round 3.38 to the nearest ten
Rounding up to the nearest 10, we look at the digits on the left hand side of the decimal point. If the number on the right of the decimal point is less than 5, we ignore it.if it is greater than 5, we add one to the last digit on the right hand side.
In this case, the first digit on the left hand side is less than 5, so we ignore it. Rounding up to the nearest ten,the 0.38 is ignored.
Therefore, it becomes 3.0 = 3
To the nearest ten
This sets up as a very commonly used proportion.
90 oz / 18.95 = 1 oz / x Cross multiply
90 x = 18.95 Divide by 90
x = 18.95 / 90
x = 0.21 dollars or 21 cents.
So each ounce of shampoo costs 0.21 dollars or 21 cents.
This is a very handy way to check best deals. Stores have trained us for years to believe that the more we buy of a brand, the better the price. It isn't always true. Sometimes buying the smaller quantity is the better deal. There is only one way to be sure and that's to do a proportion like this one.
Try this is an example. The same company makes a smaller container of shampoo of 45 oz for 9.15. How much is 1 oz and which is the better deal? You should get 0.20333 dollars so this is marginally (just) the better deal.
