In a paper airplane contest ,marcel's plane travels 3.345 meters. salvador's plane travels 3.35 meters. jennifer's plane travels 3.3 meters. based on the measurements, whose plane travled the farthest distance. whise plane travled the shortest distance? explain your reasoning using a place value chart

Salvador's plane travels farthest distance and Jennifer's plane travels shortest distance.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Marcel's plane travels 3.345 m.

Salvador's plane  travels 3.35 m

Jennifer's plane travels 3.3 m

We have to find whose plane traveled the farthest distance and which plane traveled shortest distance.

We convert given decimal number into like decimal numbers.

3.345 ,3.350,3.300

The unit place of three numbers is same.

The tenth place of three decimal numbers is same.

The hundredth place of 3.345 is 4 , the hundredth place of 3.350 is 5 and the hundredth place of 3.300 is 0.Therefore, the hundredth place of 3.350 is greater than the hundredth place of other two decimal numbers and the hundredth place of 3.300 is less than the other two decimal numbers.

Hence, the number 3.350 is greater than the other and 3.300 is smallest number.

Therefore, Salvador's plane travels farthest distance and Jennifer's plane travels  shortest distance.
