The greatest whole number that rounds to 7,400 would be 7,399. This is because there is no number that is larger than 7,399 that would round up to 7,400, since 7,400 is the next number.
The least whole number that rounds to 7,400 would be 7,401. This is because there is no number that is less than 7,401 that would round up to 7,400, since 7,400 is the next number.
Let Mary Sue have m necklaces and Betty have b necklaces.
And they have 603 necklaces altogether, that is
m + b =603
And Mary Sue has 115 more necklaces than Betty, that is
m=b +115
Substituting this value in first equation we will get
b+115+b=603
Subtracting 115
2b= 488
b= 244
So Betty have 244 necklaces .

Answer: -20</h3>
==========================================================
Work Shown:
Let x be the location of E on the number line.
Since C is the midpoint of E and F, this means we can find C's location by adding E and F together and dividing that sum by 2
midpoint = (endpoint1 + endpoint2)/2
C = (E+F)/2
Plug in E = x, C = -8 and F = 4. Then solve for x
C = (E+F)/2
-8 = (x+4)/2
(x+4)/2 = -8
x+4 = 2(-8) .... multiplying both sides by 2
x+4 = -16
x = -16-4 .... subtract 4 from both sides
x = -20
The location of point E on the number line is -20
-------------
As a check, lets add E and F to get E+F = -20+4 = -16
Then cut this in half to get -16/2 = -8, which is the proper location of point C
This confirms our answer.
B should be the answer but I’m not that sure
