Question 3 of 3

A carpenter measures one wooden plank to be 12.7 cm long. She rounds each measurement to the nearest whole centimeter to estimate the total length of 23 planks placed end‑to‑end. Write an inequality that gives all possible values of the total length L (in centimeters) of the 23 planks.
