does 6.0 and 6.1 and 6 4/5 equal to 7 when rounded to the nearest integer?

1 answer

To determine whether \(6.0\), \(6.1\), and \(6 \frac{4}{5}\) equal to \(7\) when rounded to the nearest integer, let's evaluate each value:

  1. For 6.0:

    • When rounded to the nearest integer, \(6.0\) rounds to 6.
  2. For 6.1:

    • When rounded to the nearest integer, \(6.1\) rounds to 6.
  3. For 6 \( \frac{4}{5} \) (which is \(6.8\)):

    • When rounded to the nearest integer, \(6.8\) rounds to 7.

Now, let's summarize:

  • \(6.0\) rounds to 6.
  • \(6.1\) rounds to 6.
  • \(6 \frac{4}{5}\) (or \(6.8\)) rounds to 7.

In conclusion, none of \(6.0\) or \(6.1\) rounds to \(7\), but \(6 \frac{4}{5}\) does. Therefore, the overall statement that they "equal to 7 when rounded to the nearest integer" is not true for \(6.0\) and \(6.1\). Only \(6 \frac{4}{5}\) rounds to \(7\).
