Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

if you round up 15.7 you get 16. This is because .7 is above .5, whereas if Sarah's cat weighed 15.3 it would be 15.

The answer is 16.

To find the nearest pound the number that is to the left is what you need to look at.

In this case the number is 7

Since the number 7 is bigger than 5 it rounds up. If the number was less than 5 it will round down.

Since number 7 is bigger than 5 it rounds up as said before, therefore Sarah's cat weighs 16 pounds.

Hope this helped! :D
