A package is weighed at 24kg to the nearest kg. find the largest possible weight

24.5kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The largest possible weight is also known as the upper bound which is the largest possible number that would round to 24kg

this would equal to 24.4999999999999...

but to simplify we just round to 24.5

if a = 1,   and b = 2, then the answer is 47.99999999. if you round that to the nearest whole number, the answer is 48.

the simplified form is

step-by-step explanation:

we want to simplify the expression,

let us change the middle bar to a normal division sign to obtain,

we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction to obtain,

we factor to obtain,

we cancel the common factors to get,

we simplify to get,

the correct answer is b
