Math Problem Statement
Tony rounded each of the numbers 1,183
and 1,145 to the nearest hundred. Which choice correctly compares the rounded numbers?
A) 1,200 < 1,100
B) 1,100 = 1,100
C) 1,180 > 1,150
D) 1,200 > 1,100
Solution
Let's round each number to the nearest hundred:
- 1,183 rounded to the nearest hundred is 1,200 (since 83 is closer to 100 than 0).
- 1,145 rounded to the nearest hundred is 1,100 (since 45 is closer to 100 than 0).
Now, let's compare the rounded numbers:
- 1,200 is greater than 1,100.
So, the correct comparison is:
D) 1,200 > 1,100
