Question

18. Elena wants to estimate 197.6 = 5.48.

Which number sentence shows the best
way to estimate this quotient?

A - 100 =5= 20
B - 100 = 10 = 10
C - 200 = 5 = 40
D- 200 = 10 = 20

Answer 1

Explanation:

the only way I knew this was division was because of the word quotient. Before u post, please check ur question to see if it is worded correctly....equals does not mean division.

197.6 / 5.48.....estimate

197.6 rounds to 200

5.48 rounds to 5

so the best way would be : C. 200 / 5 = 40 <===

the real answer is : 197.6 / 5.48 = 36.058.......so an estimate is not exact...but it can be close
