Answer 1

Answer: There are 7,800 jars of apple sauce during the two days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of jars of apple sauce on Thursday = 3600

Number of jars of apple sauce on Friday = 4,200

So, We need to find the number of jars of apple sauce during the two days.

So, Number of jars in these two days is given by

$3,600+4,200\\\\=7,800$

Hence, There are 7,800 jars of apple sauce during the two days.

Answer 2

The answer would be 8,000 because you would round 3,600 jars to 4,000 jars and 4,200 jars to 4,000 jars. Then you would add those two numbers together and get 8,000 jars.
