LAB 4 Dwindling Numbers
Instructions:
To complete this lab, you will need to follow along the mission memo, where there are guided video tutorials
You will need the completed data from this workbook to answer question prompts in the mission memo. The answers to those question prompts will be input in your Canvas quiz.
YOU MUST SHOW YOUR WORK TO GET FULL CREDIT
Rounding rule Do not "round" any answers while performing calculations in sheets.
Rounding will occur when you take an output number from your workbook and answer a question in your memo
For example if your workbook has a number in cell E14 that is the output of a calculation. Leave it!
Refer to the cell to use the number in future calculations.
5.37
If you are asked, what is the value of E14 in your memo or quiz, THEN round your number to ONE
decimal place.... the answer is 5.4
