Question

Tom saves $48.50 a month which is the best estimate of how much he will save at the end of the year?

A.$300
B.$350
C.$400
D.$600

Answer 1

to estimate you round 48.5 up to 50
50 times 12=600
and 48.5 was rounded up so the answer is teh nnumber <600, but closest to 600
so 600 would be a good estimate=D
12 mohts in year so
48.5 times 12=$582 saved in a year
