PROBLEM

Estimate 33.744+39.27+37.39633.744 + 39.27 + 37.396 by rounding each number to the nearest whole number.

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are asked to estimate the sum of the three numbers 33.74433.744, 39.2739.27, and 37.39637.396.
. We are to round each number to the nearest one before performing the addition.

STEP 2

First, we need to round each number to the nearest one.Let's start with 33.74433.744. Since the decimal part .744.744 is less than .5.5, we round down to the nearest one, which is 3333.
33.7443333.744 \approx33

STEP 3

Next, we round 39.2739.27. Since the decimal part .27.27 is less than .5.5, we round down to the nearest one, which is 3939.
39.273939.27 \approx39

STEP 4

Finally, we round 37.39637.396. Since the decimal part .396.396 is less than .., we round down to the nearest one, which is 3737.
37.3963737.396 \approx37

STEP 5

Now that we have rounded each number to the nearest one, we can add them together to get the estimated sum.
Estimatedsum=33+39+37Estimated\, sum =33 +39 +37

SOLUTION

Calculate the estimated sum.
Estimatedsum=33+39+37=109Estimated\, sum =33 +39 +37 =109The estimated sum of 33.74433.744, 39.2739.27, and 37.39637.396 when each number is rounded to the nearest one is 109109.
