Question

What’s the greatest hundred you can multiply by 17 to get close to but not go over 821

Answer 1

Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

821 rounded down to 800

17 rounded up to 20

820/20 =41

20x41=820

17 x 41 = 697

17 x 51 = 867

Midpoints

697+867/2 = 782

41 +51/2 = 46

46 x 17 = 782

47 x 17 = 799

48 x 17 =816

49 x 17 =833

50 x 17 =850

So, the highest number is 48.

The closest we can get is 48 x 17=816 & without going over 821.
