Answer:

The best estimate is 27 dollars.

Explanation:

When you divide 295 dollars by 11, you will get a very long decimal, do the first 2 numbers of the 1s place and 10s place in the decimal. After that, you have to round the 26.81. Since 8 is bigger than 5, you can round it to 27.00, and get your answer, which is 27 dollars.
