Part 1: $3546
If one ticket costs $1182, we can multiply that by 3 to find how much money 3 would cost.
1182 x 3 = 3546
Part 2: To check if the answer is reasonable, we need to round 1182 to the nearest hundred, then multiply the product by 3. This will allow us to see if 3546 is close to the estimated answer.
1182 ≈ 1200
1200 x 3 = 3600
Yes! 3546 is close to 3600, so we know the answer is reasonable.
Hope this was helpful! :) Let me know if you have any other questions.
