Question

Natasha wants to use the fermi process to estimate the number of pennies that would fill a toy chest. as part of the process, she needs to estimate the volume of the toy chest. she figures the toy chest is about 50 in. long, 20 in. wide, and 20 in. tall. which estimate best approximates the volume of the toy chest? 2×103 in³ 2×104 in³ 2×105 in³ 2×106 in³

Answer 1

The answer is B 2 X 10^4 in^3

Answer 2

Dimension of toy chest

Length =50 inches

Width = 20 inches

Height = 20 inches

Volume of toy chest = Length × Breadth ×Height

= 50 ×20 × 20

= 1000 × 20

= 20,000 inches cube.

`=2* 10^4 inches ^3` appears best approximation.

Option B
