Explain how to estimate the sum of the distances ran in

the three months to the nearest kilometer.

total distance andrea ran (kilometers)

march

april

may

48.7

31.2

35.66

The estimated sum of the distances ran in  the three months to the nearest kilometer is 116.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided Table.

Months     Total Distance Andrea Ran

March                     48.7  kilometers

 April                      31.2  kilometers

May                        35.66 kilometers

First round up the number to the nearest ones place as shown:

Months     Total Distance Andrea Ran

March                  48.7  ≈ 49 kilometers

 April                   31.2  ≈ 31 kilometers

May                     35.66 ≈ 36 kilometers

Now add them

49+31+36=116 kilometers

Hence, the estimated sum of the distances ran in  the three months to the nearest kilometer is 116.

the terms of a geometric sequence can be found by beginning with the first term and multiplying by the common ratio repeatedly. a recursive formula for a geometric sequence with common ratio r is given by an=ran−1 a n = r a n − 1 for n≥2 n ≥ 2 .
