Rounding and Estimating Numbers

17.893 rounded to the nearest whole number is 18. Since the decimal part (.893) is greater than 0.5, we round up to the next whole number.

To round 83.5 million pesos to the nearest million, you look at the digit in the hundred-thousands place, which is 5. Since 5 or higher rounds up, 83.5 million rounds to 84 million pesos.

The nearest thousand to 90,568 is 91,000, as it is closer to 91,000 than to 90,000. The nearest ten thousand is 90,000, since 90,568 is closer to 90,000 than to 100,000.

To convert 3.5 quarts (dry) to liters, use the conversion factor where 1 dry quart is approximately equal to 0.94635 liters. Therefore, 3.5 quarts (dry) is calculated as 3.5 × 0.94635, which equals approximately 3.31 liters. Thus, 3.5 quarts (dry) is about 3.31 liters when rounded to the nearest hundredth.

18 feet tall, when rounded to the nearest hundred feet, is 0 feet. Rounding to the nearest hundred considers the value of 18 in relation to the nearest hundred, which is 0 and 100, and since 18 is closer to 0, it rounds down.

To convert 9.63 kilograms to ounces, you can use the conversion factor that 1 kilogram is approximately 35.274 ounces. Multiply 9.63 by 35.274 to get about 340.1 ounces. Rounding to the nearest hundredth, 9.63 kilograms is approximately 340.10 ounces.

To round 2.272727 to the tenths place, you look at the digit in the hundredths place, which is 7. Since 7 is greater than or equal to 5, you round the tenths place up from 2 to 3. Therefore, 2.272727 rounded to the tenths place is 2.3.

Significant digits are important because they convey the precision of measurements and calculations, ensuring that data is accurately represented. They help to avoid overestimating the reliability of results by clearly indicating the level of uncertainty in the measurements. Using significant digits also facilitates effective communication of scientific and mathematical information, allowing for consistency and clarity among researchers and practitioners.

The nearest whole number to 500 is, of course, 500 itself. If you're looking for the nearest numbers surrounding it, they would be 499 and 501, which are each one unit away from 500. However, 500 is the closest number overall.

The nearest whole number to 91.937 is 92. When rounding, if the decimal is 0.5 or higher, you round up, and since 0.937 is greater than 0.5, we round up to 92.

To round 1297 to the nearest hundred, you look at the digit in the tens place, which is 9. Since 9 is 5 or greater, you round up the hundreds place from 1200 to 1300. Therefore, 1297 rounded to the nearest hundred is 1300.

To round 7721098911 to the nearest billion, you look at the digit in the hundred million place, which is 7 in this case. Since 7 is 5 or greater, you round up the billion place from 7 to 8. Therefore, 7721098911 rounded to the nearest billion is 8000000000.

To round 800,000 to the nearest hundred thousand, it remains 800,000, as it is already at that value. The largest number that would round to 800,000 is 849,999, while the smallest number that would round to 800,000 is 750,000.

The root word for "rounded" is "round." The term "rounded" is formed by adding the suffix "-ed" to the root "round," indicating a shape that is curved or circular.

Florida is not a numerical value, so it cannot be rounded to the nearest tenth. If you're referring to a specific numerical statistic or measurement related to Florida, please provide that value, and I can help with rounding it.

425.919 rounded to the nearest whole number is 426. Since the digit after the decimal point is 9, which is 5 or greater, we round up the whole number part from 425 to 426.

To round a number to the nearest thousand, first identify the hundreds digit (the third digit from the right). If this digit is 5 or greater, round up by adding 1 to the thousands digit and changing the digits to the right of it to zero. If the hundreds digit is less than 5, simply keep the thousands digit the same and change all digits to the right to zero.

To find the high and low estimates of 541 - 293, we can round the numbers for simplicity. Rounding 541 to 540 and 293 to 300 gives a high estimate of 540 - 300 = 240. For a low estimate, rounding 541 down to 540 and 293 down to 290 results in 540 - 290 = 250. Therefore, the high estimate is 240, and the low estimate is 250.

When rounding 1.99999 to the nearest thousandths place, you look at the digit in the thousandths position, which is 9. Since the next digit (the ten-thousandths place) is also 9, it indicates that you should round up. Therefore, 1.99999 rounded to the nearest thousandths place becomes 2.0.

When rounding the number 213 to one significant figure, you look at the first digit, which is 2. The next digit is 1, which is less than 5, so you do not round up. Thus, 213 rounded to one significant figure is 200.

To round 8.275 to the nearest tenths of an ounce, you look at the hundredths place, which is 7. Since 7 is 5 or greater, you round up the tenths place from 2 to 3. Therefore, 8.275 rounded to the nearest tenths of an ounce is 8.3 ounces.

A hundredth of a second of 27.34 is 0.01 multiplied by 27.34, which equals 0.2734. This means that 27.34 seconds can be expressed as 27.34 seconds plus an additional 0.2734 seconds when considering the hundredth of a second.

To estimate (90 \times 0.4), you can round (0.4) to a simpler value. Since (0.4) is close to (0.5), you can estimate (90 \times 0.5), which equals (45). Thus, the estimate for (90 \times 0.4) would be slightly less than (45), around (36). A quick calculation gives (90 \times 0.4 = 36), confirming the estimate.

To round a number to the nearest 50, first identify the two multiples of 50 that are closest to the number. If the number is halfway between two multiples (e.g., 25 or 75), round up to the higher multiple. For numbers below the halfway point, round down to the lower multiple. For example, 120 rounds to 100, while 130 rounds to 150.

The nearest thousand to 7,593,656 is 7,594,000. This is determined by rounding the last three digits, 656, up to the nearest thousand. Since 656 is greater than 500, we round up to 7,594,000.
