Malcolm is driving 1,323 miles from Wichita to Charleston for a family reunion. He drives 443 miles the first day and 409 miles the second day. Round each distance to the nearest ten and estimate about how many miles Malcolm has left to drive.

Respuesta :

1323 rounds to 1320
443 rounds to 440
409 rounds to 410

1320 - (440 + 410) =
1320 - 850 =
470 <=== malcolm has about 470 miles left to go

The miles Malcolm has left to drive is equal to 470 miles

Organizing the information given in the statement we have that:

  • Malcolm is driving 1,323 miles
  • He drives 443 miles the first day
  • He drives 409 miles the second day.

What is the rounding rule?

If the digit before the decimal place you want to round is greater than or equal to 5, we must increase the decimal place chosen for rounding by 1. If the number is less than 5, we just remove the decimal places that we don't care about, and the number doesn't change.

Making the Round each distance to the nearest we have:

  • 1323 rounds to 1320
  • 443 rounds to 440
  • 409 rounds to 410

So the miles left is:

[tex]1320 - (440 + 410) \\=1320 - 850\\ =470[/tex]
