The question

Question: type 1000/7 as an SAT answer.

10007

1 Count the characters

1000/7 has 6 characters.

That is more than 5.

1000/7: 6 characters, more than 5

So we type the decimal.

1000/7 is 142.857143 on the calculator.

10007 = 1000 ÷ 7 = 142.857143

We keep the first 5 characters: 142.8.

We just cut off the rest.

No need to round.

142.857143 → 142.8

2 Type it in

We type 142.8.

Let's look back.

First: count the characters.

Last: type it in.
