5. green sea turtles can grow to be more than 3 feet long. the
aquarium has one sea turtle that weighs 264 pounds and a younger
turtle that weighs 186 pounds. to the nearest hundred, what is the fa
weight of the 2 sea turtles together?

The weight of the turtles together is

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find out the weight of the 2 sea turtles together, adds the weight of one turtle plus the weight of the other turtle and then round to the nearest hundred

step 1

Adds the weight of the two turtles

step 2

Round to the nearest hundred

Remember that

To Round a number

a) Decide which is the last digit to keep  

b) Leave it the same if the next digit is less than (this is called rounding down)  

c) But increase it by   if the next digit is   or more (this is called rounding up)

In this problem we have

We want to keep the digit

The next digit is which is 5 or more, so increase the "4" by 1 to "5"

therefore

The weight of the turtles together round to the nearest hundred is

one that is bigger than 3 1/2

1.0
