Rounding Approximation Ffa4F6
1. **Problem statement:** We need to round numbers to specified decimal places and perform approximate calculations by rounding to whole numbers.
2. **Rounding rules:**
- To round to two decimals, look at the third decimal digit: if 5 or more, round up the second decimal digit.
- To round to three decimals, look at the fourth decimal digit: if 5 or more, round up the third decimal digit.
- For rounding to whole numbers, look at the first decimal digit: if 5 or more, round up the integer.
3. **Rounding to two decimals:**
- a) $12.409 \approx 12.41$ (since the third decimal 9 is >5, round up)
- b) $0.0019 \approx 0.00$ (third decimal is 1, less than 5, so stays 0)
4. **Rounding to three decimals:**
- b) $1.5894 \approx 1.590$ (fourth decimal 4 < 5, so third decimal stays 9)
- b) $0.9089 \approx 0.909$ (fourth decimal 9 > 5, round up third decimal 8 to 9)
5. **Approximate calculations by rounding to whole numbers:**
- a) $4.9 \cdot 10.2 \approx 5 \cdot 10 = 50$
- b) $62.1 \cdot 3.3 \approx 62 \cdot 3 = 186$
- c) $12.1 : 5.3 \approx 12 : 5 = 2.4$
- d) $4.7 : 0.9 \approx 5 : 1 = 5$
**Final answers:**
- a) 12.41
- b) 0.00
- b) 1.590
- b) 0.909
- a) 50
- b) 186
- c) 2.4
- d) 5
This completes the rounding and approximate calculations as requested.
