Question
Which of the following options is the closest
approximate value that should come in place of the question mark (?) in the following equation? 14.99 ÷ 5.01 x 9.99 – 6.99 = ?ÂSolution
Step 1: Approximate the values
14.99 ≈ 15
5.01 ≈ 5
9.99 ≈ 10
6.99 ≈ 7
So approximately: (15÷5)×10−7(15 \div 5) \times 10 - 7 ( 15 ÷ 5 ) × 10 − 7 Step 2: Perform operations
15 ÷ 5 = 3  Closest approximate value: 23
3 × 10 = 30
30 - 7 = 23
