    This document provides instruction on calculating upper and lower bounds when rounding numbers. It begins with examples of finding the upper and lower bounds for population and distance numbers rounded to the nearest 1000 and mile. The general rule explained is to add or subtract half the rounding unit to find the upper or lower bound, respectively. More examples are given for units rounded to the nearest metre, centimetre, litre, kilogram, hour, and minute. Students are assigned an independent task and homework involving real-life applications of calculating upper and lower bounds. Links to YouTube videos further explaining the concept are also provided.

    Lesson Objective: Give appropriate upper and lower
    bounds for data given to a specified accuracy.
    SC1:  Calculate the upper and lower bound for simple context.
    SC2: Calculate the upper and lower bound for the given context.
    SC3:  Apply the knowledge of upper and lower bound to solve
    real life problems.

    bound, Rounding,
    Accuracy, Significant figure
    CCL: Business, Engineering,
    Science & Technology
    A general rule
    • To find the upper bound we have to add half of the unit we rounded to for
    • And if we want the lower bound, we subtract half of the unit
    • example:
    • If we rounded to the nearest 10, we add on 5 (half of 10)
    • If we rounded to the nearest 1 (whole number), we add on 0.5 (half of 1)
    Upper & Lower Bounds
    Examples:
    Find the upper and lower bounds for each quantity

    Eg1 The population of Liverpool is 466,000 (to the nearest 1000)

    Lower Bound: 465,500 Upper Bound: 466,500

    Eg2 The distance from L’pool to M’chester is 34 miles (nearest mile)

    Lower Bound: 33.5 miles Upper Bound: 34.5 miles

    Eg3 4500 people (nearest 100) LB: 4450 UB: 4549

    Eg4 163cm (nearest cm) LB: 162.5 UB: 163.5
