Question

Estimate the product. Round each factor to the nearest whole number, and then mult 4.6 x 4.1 The product is approximately Submit O

Answer 1

We need to multiply:

`4.6\cdot4.1=\text{???}`

But first, we will round each term to the nearest whole number

so,

4.6 will be rounded to 5 ( because 0.6 > 0.5 )

4.1 will be rounded to 4 ( because 0.1 < 0.5 )

so,

4.6 x 4.1 ( approximately ) = 5 * 4 = 20
