QuestionIdentify the two thousand benchmarks around 1,742 and place them on a number line with 1,742.
Studdy Solution
STEP 1
Assumptions1. The number given is1,742. Benchmarks are typically numbers that are easy to use in mental calculations, often multiples of10,100,1000, etc.3. In this case, we are looking for the two thousands that would be benchmarks for the number1,742. This means we are looking for the thousand that is immediately less than1,742 and the thousand that is immediately greater than1,742.
STEP 2
First, let's find the thousand that is immediately less than1,742. This is the largest thousand that is still less than1,742.
STEP 3
Since1,742 is between1,000 and2,000, the thousand that is immediately less than1,742 is1,000.
STEP 4
Next, let's find the thousand that is immediately greater than1,742. This is the smallest thousand that is still greater than1,742.
STEP 5
Since1,742 is between1,000 and2,000, the thousand that is immediately greater than1,742 is2,000.
STEP 6
Now that we have our two benchmark thousands (1,000 and2,000), we can place these along with1,742 on the number line.
STEP 7
On the number line, place a mark at1,000 and label it "1,000".
STEP 8
Place a mark at2,000 on the number line and label it "2,000".
STEP 9
Place a mark at,742 on the number line, between the marks for,000 and2,000, and label it ",742".
The two benchmark thousands for,742 are,000 and2,000, and these along with,742 have been placed on the number line.
