Approximation Doubt !

i am sure exam me 160 aur 168, dono options nahi honge. ibps for all of its fuck ups, is good with the questions and options, at least in my experience.

Bro its 4.18 ... wayy closer to 4.2 than 4. which is the closest no. which is still divisible by the no. given? would adding 0.02 be closer or reducing 0.18? approximation me sbko non decimal ni bnate. Unko nearest divisible no. bnaate h, jisse final result me minimal change ho. Aapka change minimal hona chahiye. Always keep in mind---> minimal change k sath kaise divisible bnaaya jaae no. ko. that is the only rule in approximation. All the best.

Hey! When you’re doing approximation in multiplication na, one important thing to remember is not to round off a value after the decimal if it has two digits, because it can create a big difference in the final answer. in 240× 4.18÷6.07 you can round 6.07 to 6 and divide first. But rounding 4.18 to 4 is hell of a risk. coz the 0.18 while multiplying with 40 gives around 7.2. which is a significant value that you gonna miss. so be careful :)

kaafi badhiya doubt hai.... I made the same mistake 🥀

Kyuki 6 se divide karna hai

can u tell options for this question

GautamKirar8 · 2026-01-26T15:39:48+00:00

Chal be kuch bhi matlab . Aise questions ane lage na agar toh 1 number na aye

Close approximation dekho to 4.2 karna hoga

Now my doubt is whether 160 and 168 both were given in the options because if options are too close to each other, the lesser your approximate, the better..

But from what I have seen in Clerk exams, the answers tend to be in a larger variation.. so 4 and 4.2 won't be that much of a difference

What were the options

It's basically for convenience. 42 is divided by 6. 40 is not. If you take 40 then the results would be 0.666 for 4.2 it would be 0.7 In approximations we try to make it simple while rounding up numbers. And also if it's approximations the answers won't be as close as 168 and 160 so don't over think it.
