Answer (2)
Let's solve each part of the question step-by-step.
How many people in total saw the match on Sunday?
The number of people who attended the cricket match on Sunday is already given in the question: 3785 people .
Estimate and find the actual number of mangoes and oranges:
The fruit seller has:
128 mangoes
243 oranges
To estimate the total number to the nearest tens:
128 rounded to the nearest tens is 130.
243 rounded to the nearest tens is 240.
So, the estimated total is: 130 + 240 = 370
The actual total number of mangoes and oranges is: 128 + 243 = 371
Find the total number of students in the school:
The school has:
1728 students in the primary section
1212 students in the middle section
764 students in the senior section
To find the total number of students: 1728 + 1212 + 764 = 3704
Find the total number of trees in the orchard:
The orchard has:
1570 apple trees
2350 plum trees
2720 peach trees
To find the total number of trees: 1570 + 2350 + 2720 = 6640
Overall, these exercises involve basic addition and some estimation skills, suitable for reinforcing arithmetic concepts for Middle School students.
A total of 3785 people attended the cricket match on Sunday. The estimated total of mangoes and oranges is 370, while the actual total is 371. The total number of students in the school is 3704, and the total number of trees in the orchard is 6640.
