James buys 8 tomatoes that have a combined weight of 4.5 pounds. The scale measures to the nearest hundredth of a pound. What is the most precise value of the average weight of the tomatoes that James purchases, given the level of accuracy of the scale?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Most precise value of the average weight is 0.56 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the precise value, we start by getting the average weight

That will be total weight/8

= 4.5 pounds/8 = 0.5625

we are told that the scale records to the nearest hundredth

So we need to express the obtained value in hundredths

That will be 0.56 pounds
