Exercise 13.1
You will need to remind yourself
how to calculate volumes of
three-dimensional shapes in
chapter 7. You also need to
remember what you learned about
standard form in chapter 5.

Problem solving with upper and lower bounds
Some calculations make use of more than one rounded value. Careful use of the upper
and lower bounds of each value, will give correct upper and lower bounds for the
calculated answer.
