Mr. Baba earns at most $300 per week while Ms. Dede earns less than $200 week . Can Mr. Baba add his salary to Ms. Dede’s to buy a vase that costs $500 and they have no other source of revenue during the week and no additional expenses?

(1) Yes because 200+300 = 500

(2) Yes because Ms, Dede may only be a penny short, Mr. earns exactly $300, and the sales people want to make a commission.

(3) No because Ms. Dede and/or Mr. Baba may be substantially short.


(4) The answer is ambiguous. Case (2) and case (3) are possible.

A number is rounded to the nearest hundred. After rounding the number is 71,300. What could have been the largest number before rounding?
