Answer:

B. 200 acres

Explanation:

Create an estimate by rounding the size of each of their farms to the nearest hundred.

Kim's farm is approximately 1,300 acres, since 292 is closest to 300.

Jack's farm is approximately 1,100 acres, since 104 is closest to 100.

Using these estimates, find the difference between them:

1,300 - 1,100

= 200

So, the best estimate of the size difference is B. 200 acres
