1. in which year were there more

participants than in the year 2011?

1. how many participants were there

rounded to the nearest thousands
place in 2013?

Explanation:

Step1: Compare participants in 2011 with other years

• For 2010: \(799950<801287\)
• For 2012: \(799905<801287\)
• For 2013: \(801870>801287\)
• For 2014: \(799090<801287\)

Step2: Count years with fewer participants

Years 2010, 2012, 2014 have fewer participants than 2011. So there are \(3\) years.

Step3: Count years with more participants

Only 2013 has more participants than 2011. So there is \(1\) year.

Step4: Sort participants

• \(799090<799905<799950<801287<801870\)
• Corresponding years: 2014, 2012, 2010, 2011, 2013

Step5: Find year with more participants than 2011

From Step1, 2013 has \(801870>801287\)

Step6: Calculate difference in 2013 and 2012

\(801870 - 799905=1965\)

Step7: Round 2011 participants

\(801287\approx801000\) (to the nearest thousands)

Step8: Round 2013 participants

\(801870\approx802000\) (to the nearest thousands)

Answer:

• 5. Fewer: \(3\) years; More: \(1\) year
• 6. 2014, 2012, 2010, 2011, 2013
• 7. 2013
• 8. \(1965\)
• 9. \(801000\)
• 10. \(802000\)
