Answer:
Emma was right to say that both packages are close to 2 pounds.
If we round-off the weights of both to the nearest whole number we would get 2 pounds on both. We look at the the difference of both from 2 pounds we get the following:
2.36 - 2.0 = 0.36
2.09 - 2.0 = 0.09
The smaller the difference the closer it is to the base value. So we can say that the closest one is 2.0 pounds is the package that weighs 2.09 pounds.
