(A) 44.15 grams
(B) 44.85 grams
(C) 44.88 grams
(D) 45.12 grams
Cambria chose (D) as the correct answers.How did she get that answer?

Respuesta :

Lightest = 379.37
Heaviest = 424.25

Difference = 424.25 - 379.37 = 44.88 (Answer C)

Cambria could have read 379.4 as 379.04 and chose that as the lightest. 
424.25 - 379.04 = 45.12
