My daughter has a math project and none of us can figure out the right answer! Any help would be awesome!

When estimating decimals, you go to the nearest zero. For instance, 1.333333333333333 would round off to 1.30 When estimating whole numbers, too, you go to the whole number that is the nearest multiple of 10. For example, if you had to distribute 199 pieces of pizza between 20 people, you could say that every person gets nearly 10 pieces of pizza.

Well, first you tell the daughter with the homework problem to do her own damn research. Then, you crack open a cold one and pop a DVD in the player. Ahh, wasn't that easy.

you're lacking the right-maximum digit. that is both on the fringe of the sq. root of sixty seven cases a million (~8.a million million) or the sq. root of 6.7 cases a million (~2.5 million). I forget which. In different words, you drop most of digits from the right (both or maybe or problem-free quantity, I forget) then estimate the sq. root.

We parents are fit to be tied, I tell ya'.
Isn't it much the same (if 5 or higher-round up, 5 or less-round down), but you have to keep that decimal in its place?
