Mr. Hills horses, all together, eat 395 pounds of oats each month. If Mr. Hills has 5 horses, and each horse eats the sane amount of oats, which is the best estimate of the number of pounds of oats that each horse eats each month?

I would say 80, because without an estimate it'd be 79 and 79x5=395. So 80x5=400, which is the estimate of 395. So 80 is the answer
