Round 32,879 to the nearest thousand and use a number line to model your thinking

Solution

The given number is 32, 897

Here we need to round the thousand place.

Find the number in the thousands place.

We have 2 in the thousands place.

Look for digit which is right to 2.

We have 8, which is greater than 5, if we have the number greater than 5 we have to add 1 with thousands place and make the other numbers zeros.

Since we have 8 right to the number 2, so we add 1 with 2.

2 + 1 = 3

Now thousands place became 3 and make other digits zero.

32, 879 = 33, 000

The answer is 33,000

Note: Here I have attached the place value chart.

step-by-step explanation:

there is a formula i can give you:

it is r^2*n*sin(360/n) divided by 2 where r represents the "radius" and n is the number of sides.

plug them in:

(10sqrt(3))^2*6*sin(360/6) divided by 2

100*3*6*sin(60) divided by 2

900*sin(60)

900*sqrt(3)/2

450*sqrt(3)

approx is 779.4 cm^2
