9.The working of a metro station is controlled by 28 persons. Estimate the number of persons required to control the working of 88 such stations to the nearest tens.

Answer 1

Answer:

8.) 8,780 toffees can be stored in 122 such bags.

9.) 2,460 people are required to control the working of 88 such stations.

Step-by-step explanation:

QUESTION 8:

We know that there are 72 toffees per bag

So if we want to know how many toffees can be stored in 122 such bags:

72 x 122 = 8,784

ROUND IT TO THE NEAREST TENS:

Look at the digit to the right of the tens place: 8,784–>4. 4 and below means that the digit will be repkaced by 0 and the tens place remains the same.

So 8,784 rounded to tens is 8,780

Tye answer for question 9 is

2,460 (do the same thing)
