Question

The coach of a local basketball team says that her team has scored about 180 points during its last three games. Which of the following numbers, when rounded to the nearest 10, most likely represents the actual scores of the three games?

A. 47, 62, 72.
B. 62, 68, 70.
C. 30, 53, 62.
D. 33, 45, 48.

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 47, 62, 72.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A = first game

Let B = second game

Let C = third game

Given the following data;

Total score = 180 points

If A = 47 points;

To the nearest ten, A = 50

If B = 62 points;

To the nearest ten, B = 60

If C = 72 points;

To the nearest ten, C = 70

Total points = A + B + C

Substituting into the equation, we have

Total points = 50 + 60 + 70

Total points = 180 points.

Therefore, 47, 62 and 72 when rounded to the nearest 10, most likely represents the actual scores (180) of the three games.
