A tomato is cut into 8 slices. If each slice contains 0.12 grams of fiber, how can rounding be used to estimate the amount of fiber in the entire tomato?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The amount of fiber in the entire tomato is approximately 1 g

Step-by-step explanation:

A tomato is cut into 8 slices.

1 slice contains 012 g of fiber

8 slices will contain;

[tex]\frac{8 * 0.12}{1}[/tex] g = 0.96g which equals to 1 g when rounded up nearest  gram.

So the amount of fiber in the entire tomato is 0.96g ≈ 1g
