$2$ points Sometimes when we do multiple calculations, we can introduce error by rounding intermediate steps. Consider the problem: "Calculate $\frac{3\mathrm{.}142}{2\mathrm{.}71(1\mathrm{.}52-0\mathrm{.}43)}$; report answer rounded to the hundredths place." Doing this problem in steps without rounding intermediate calculations yields: $\frac{3\mathrm{.}142}{2\mathrm{.}71(1\mathrm{.}52-0\mathrm{.}43)}=\frac{3\mathrm{.}142}{2\mathrm{.}71(1\mathrm{.}09)}=\frac{3\mathrm{.}142}{2\mathrm{.}9539}=1\mathrm{.}063679$dots which is $1\mathrm{.}06($rounded$).$ Doing this problem in steps rounding intermediate calculations yields: $\frac{3\mathrm{.}142}{2\mathrm{.}71(1\mathrm{.}52-0\mathrm{.}43)}=\frac{3\mathrm{.}142}{2\mathrm{.}71(1\mathrm{.}09)}=\frac{3\mathrm{.}142}{2\mathrm{.}95}=1\mathrm{.}065085$dots which is $1\mathrm{.}07($rounded$).$ Notce how intermediate calculations were rounded to the hundredths place. To avoid rounding errors, we shouldn't round until after the last calculation $($there are exceptions$).$ Try the following: Without rounding intermediate calculations:
