Question
Answer:
1.Design a number line containing five (5) points
 For this case what you should do is place a line with five points.
 You can think of one of the axes of the Cartesian plane, for example, the x-axis. We place five separate points in that line the same distance.
 line: 0 1 2 3 4 5

 a. Round off the total population to the nearest hundred thousand people
 nearest hundred thousand means
 100,000
 Then rounding off we have:
 10,160,555
 hundred thousand: 10,161,000 
 b. Round off Benin's area in square miles to the nearest thousand.

 nearest thousand means
 1,000
 Then rounding off we have:
 43,475
 thousand: 44,000

 Round off the number of miles of surfaced roads to the nearest ten. nearest ten means
 10
 Then rounding off we have:
 870
 ten: 870

d. Round off the number of people who live in rural areas to the nearest million
 nearest million means
 1,000,000
 Then rounding off we have:
 3,657,790
 million: 4,000,000
