2ai) Round off

235 x 52 ≒ 240 x 50 = 12000

ii) Round up

235 x 52 ≒ 240 x 60 = 14400

iii) Round down

235 x 52 ≒ 230 x 50 = 11500

b) 1L = 1000ml

To choose the best method, first consider the actual volume of the soft drink, which is

52 x 235 ml = 12220 ml

Then calculate the difference between the estimated values in a)

For ai) 12220 - 12000 = 220ml

aii) 14400 - 12220 = 2180ml

aiii) 12220 - 11500 = 720ml

So, the method of rounding off is the most accurate.

Hence the number of 1L bottled soft drink that should be bought:

12000 / 1000 = 12
