Question

2
(a) In 2016, a company sold 9600 cars, correct to the nearest hundred.
(i) Write down the lower bound for the number of cars sold.

Answer 1

Answer: lower bound = 9550

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the number is rounded to the nearest hundred, the actual value is somewhere between 9550 (which rounds up to 9600) and 9649 (which rounds down to 9600).

The lower bound is: 9550

The upper bound is: 9649
