Given the statement:

Holly bought blank CDs and spent 34.57

Determine the amount to the nearest dollar.

Solution:

In order to determine the amount in nearest dollar, we should familiarize ourselves first in rounding numbers.In rounding numbers, it must be taken to note that if the number is greater than or equal to 5 then the succeeding number will be added by 1, hence if the number is less than 5, then the succeeding number will remain the same. Before the whole number 34, we have 5 which is equal to 5, therefore we will add 1 to 34.

= $34.57

= $35

Final answer:

= $35
