Maybe your teacher made a mistake. To get the answer for 2, you would round down 11.5 to 11 (11 x 9 - 5 = 94). Maybe your teacher meant to put 11.49 instead of 11.5

It is good to clarify.


For me i will clarify with the teacher.

Only if the teacher said is no mistake in the question than 94 is the answer.


As 11.5 can round down or round up :).


Tku to u also for voicing up for me to see two side of picture :)).

Cheers all the best for psle :)

it's like you said though. anything equal or higher than 0.5 is rounded up but in the answer, you rounded down the 11.5

Let simplify nearest whole number >=0.5 round up,
Less than or equal to 0.5 round down.

I round 11.5 to 11 as i can round up the other part no in the question.

Try to analyse a few qs there than can get the hang of it.

Oh okay, so it's like rounding down one nunber to cancel out another rounded up number so it's closest to the exact value?

Yes, that is my perpestive.

However as a student back than if received that qs for hmk i will clarify with the teacher.

If the teacher insist that answer is 94

I will take

Decimal O.5 to round down since the remaining no in question the decimal is > 0.5
