Armando took his dog, Tasha, to the vet. Tasha was placed on the scale and weighed 45.72 pounds. The veterinarian told Armando that Tasha’s breed should weigh no more than Thirty-six and one-half pounds. Armando calculated about how much weight Tasha should lose to be under the breed’s maximum weight. 45.72 rounds to 45 rounds to 37 45 – 37 = 8 pounds Which statements are true about Armando’s calculations? Check all that apply. Armando should have added 37 to 45. Armando should have rounded 45.72 to 45.5. Armando should not have rounded Thirty-six and one-half to 37. Armando should have calculated that the difference between 45 and 37 is 7. Armando’s last step should have shown 45.5 Minus thirty-six and one-half = 9.
