    Find the sum 389 + 871 =

    Explanation
    The sum of 389 and 871 is calculated by adding the corresponding digits in each place value. Starting from the rightmost digit, 9 plus 1 equals 10, which is written as 0 in the ones place and carry over the 1 to the tens place. In the tens place, 8 plus 7 plus the carried over 1 equals 16, which is written as 6 in the tens place and carry over the 1 to the hundreds place. Finally, in the hundreds place, 3 plus 1 equals 4. Therefore, the sum of 389 and 871 is 1260.

    Find the difference702 - 568 =

    Explanation
    The correct answer is obtained by subtracting 568 from 702. When we subtract the units place, 2-8, we get -6. Since we cannot have a negative value in the units place, we borrow 1 from the tens place. In the tens place, 0-6 becomes -6 but with the borrowed 1, it becomes -5. Finally, in the hundreds place, 7-5 is 2. Therefore, the difference between 702 and 568 is 134.

    Find the perimeter of a rectangle with             width  48 ft,  length 22ft

    Explanation
    The perimeter of a rectangle is calculated by adding up the lengths of all its sides. In this case, the width is given as 48 ft and the length is given as 22 ft. To find the perimeter, we add up the four sides of the rectangle: 48 ft + 22 ft + 48 ft + 22 ft = 140 ft. Therefore, the correct answer is 140 ft.

    Find the least common multiple and greatest common factor of 4, 6, and 8

    Explanation
    The least common multiple (LCM) of 4, 6, and 8 is 24 because it is the smallest number that is divisible by all three numbers. The greatest common factor (GCF) of 4, 6, and 8 is 2 because it is the largest number that divides evenly into all three numbers.

  • 10. 

    578 – 234 = ?Round to the nearest 10 to estimate the answer.

    Explanation
    To round 578 to the nearest 10, we look at the digit in the tens place, which is 7. Since 7 is greater than or equal to 5, we round up to the next multiple of 10, which is 580. To round 234 to the nearest 10, we look at the digit in the tens place, which is 3. Since 3 is less than 5, we round down to the previous multiple of 10, which is 230. Subtracting 230 from 580 gives us 350. Therefore, the estimated answer to 578 - 234 rounded to the nearest 10 is 350.
