Answer:

3 times 1

Step-by-step explanation:

2.75 - 75 or in other words 7 is closer to 10 than 0, so well round it up to the next number, 3.

1.25 - 25 or in others words 2 is closer to 0 than 10, so we'll round it down to the nearest lowest whole number, 1.

our new expression: 3 × 1. hope that helps!
