Question

Approximate to the nearest thousandth

 

1. ^4√81π

 

2. √^5√0.00272

 

Answer 1

Thank you for posting your question!

In each case I would use technology like a handheld calculator or Microsoft Excel in order to approximate what the underlying value would be. And then since it’s asking for rounding to the nearest thousandth that means to 3 decimal places.

So when I plug in the 4^th root of 81*pi into my calculator I get 9.425

And when I plug the 5^th root of 0.0272 into my calculator I get 0.446

I hope that helps! Feel free to reach out via message for a lesson if you have any additional questions beyond that! :)
