a stadium has 58 sections of seats there are 288 seats in each section mary estimated the total of seats by multiplying 60 x 300. she concluded that the stadium has fewer than 18,000. What is Marys argument?
She is saying that 58 is rounded to 60 and 288 is rounded to 300 so if you multiply that it is 18,000 so it has to be less than that bc it was rounded up
Mary's argument is that since 58 rounded to the nearest tenth would be 60 and 288 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 300 there will be less than 18,000 seats in the stadium.
