There are three petri dishes in a laboratory. The first one contains 22,340 cells, the second contains 43,560 cells, and the last dish contains 36,612 cells. Approximately how many cells are there in total?

Answer 1

To calculate the approximate total number of cells, sum up the number of cells in each of the three dishes:

22,340 + 43,560 + 36,612 = 102,512

Therefore, there are approximately 102,512 cells in total.
