这里有学数学的吗? Compatible Number 在中国是什么概念?

我看定义很含糊啊。

Compatible Number

Definition of Compatible Number

  • Compatible numbers are numbers that are close in value to the actual numbers and easy to add, subtract, multiply, or divide mentally.
  • They are useful in estimating the sum, difference, product, or quotient.
Examples of Compatible Number
  • Estimate 13 ÷ 3.6.

To estimate the quotient, choose the compatible  numbers 12 and 4 as 12 and 4 are compatible with each other. Also notice that 12 is closer to 13 and 4 is closer to 3.6.

This is my comment: Division like the example above might be obvious, but some of them are not.  For example, 9.4 + 62.6, what are the compatible numbers?  It could be 9 + 61 (because 9 + 1 = 10), it could be 9 + 62 (simply drop decimal) and it could be 10 + 62 (because 10 plus anything is easy) , pending on which way is "easy" to the individual and what reason that is "easy".  Is there a standard answer to this question?

不是学数学的,感觉就是近似数,近似到多少位取决于需要 -xchmm- 给 xchmm 发送悄悄话 (0 bytes) () 09/17/2012 postreply 07:42:59

看题不认真。 你对我最后一段的问题给个答案? -CirrusCloud- 给 CirrusCloud 发送悄悄话 CirrusCloud 的博客首页 (0 bytes) () 09/17/2012 postreply 08:20:29

我认为没有标准答案,因为目的是帮助简化,方便运算,所以说取决于需要,看需要多close。如果先简化再运算,不会考虑1+9 -xchmm- 给 xchmm 发送悄悄话 (0 bytes) () 09/17/2012 postreply 08:36:15

这题应该是有标准答案的。 因为同时问的是: -CirrusCloud- 给 CirrusCloud 发送悄悄话 CirrusCloud 的博客首页 (84 bytes) () 09/17/2012 postreply 08:45:17
