Question

Answer 1

36 and 57

D is correct

Explanation:

Luna made a mural that is 2.6 meters long she charges $18.50 per meter.

Total cost of mural = Length x Cost per meter

We need to estimate the total price of Mural.

First we round off each number and then multiply it.

Round off lowest value:

2.6 Lowest round off to 2

18.50 lowest round off to 18

Lowest value = 2 x 18 = 36

Round off to largest value:

2.6 round off to 3

18.50 round of to 19

Largest value = 3 x 19 = 57

Best estimate of total money, 36 and 57
