In 1 hour, Antoine travels 1.75 mi by dividing 5.25 by 3. So, after lunch, he hiked 4 hours. 1.75 times 2 is 3.5 mi every hour after lunch. So, 3.5 times 4 is 14 mi. + 5.25 is 19.25 mi., or 19 1/4 miles.
Rounding to the nearest thousand
for example, if the number is 104001. ten thousand would be 100000 while rounding to the nearest thousand would be 104000. accurate means closer to the correct answer, and the one rounded to the nearest thousand, 104000 is closer to the correct answer 104001 than the one rounded to ten thousand
Decimal points must be aligned with performing addition or subtraction.
The arithmetic operation that does <em>not</em> require decimal points be aligned is multiplication.
_____
For multiplication, you only need to know the number of digits to the right of the decimal point(s).
For long division, it is usually convenient to convert the divisor to an integer and adjust the decimal point of the dividend accordingly. Alternatively, it is necessary to know the number of digits in each number that are to the left of the decimal point.

Answer:
0.41 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The scale on the map is 1 in 86 mi.
This means that, 1 cm on the map represents 86 miles in real life, or on earth.
Then we're told that in real life, a distance is 35 miles, and how far they are on the map.
If 1 cm equals 86 miles, then we can say that x cm equals 35 miles
1 cm ----> 86
x cm ----> 35
x * 86 = 35 * 1
x = 35 / 86
x = 0.41 cm
Therefore, they must be 0.41 cm farther or closer apart on the map scale.
