Jamal is planting seeds for a garden nursery. he plants 9 seeds in each container. if jamal has 296 seeds to plant , about how many containers will he use

He will use 33 containers because 9 goes into 296 32.8 times but you cant have .8 of a container so you round it up to 33

Rounding decimals is very similar to rounding other numbers. if the hundredths and thousandths places of a decimal is forty-nine or less, they are dropped and the tenths place does not change. for example, rounding 0.843 to the nearest tenth would give 0.8. , your welcome !
