Please select 2 correct answers
Solution: Write down all the given numbers vertically and align all decimals, then you can add them. To shorten your time, check the 4th digit from the decimal point or the ten-thousandths place, it is 4. Then the 3rd digit from the decimal point or the thousandths place, you have 4+4 and it is 8. Eliminate choice A because the answer must be 1000+. You only have choice d that has 84 on the last two digits after the decimal.
