I got a math test back and the question was 5000(0.04)(0.0833) i got 16.66 but it was marked wrong she said it should have been 16.67 and that i just rounded wrong. i have tried on every calculator i have and i still only get 16.66 . I lost a point off my test for this and she wont admit that she maybe wrong and just blammed it on my calculator
+1491 Rounding is not done by the calculator. You must do it in your head, so you were wrong. ._.

Your teacher is wrong unless you have not written the question correctly .. like maybe there was a dot above something indicating that it was a repeating decimal.
5000(0.04)(0.0833)
=10000(0.04)(0.0833) /2
=833*0.04/2
=833*0.02
=833*0.01*2
=8.33*2
=16.66
You can show your teacher that if you want to :) (I didn't use a claculator)
+1491 They were probably asked to round if the correct answer was marked wrong. Then again there is nothing to round up. What am l even doing on here?! l have an AP test tomorrow! D:
