Answer:

30

Explanation:

Round 903.6 to 900 and 29.1 to 30

So 900/30

= 30

This would be my estimated answer

Also 30^2

= 900

Answer:

31

Explanation:

I would use my fingers mostly.

But, I just do it normally. I pretend I'm using a sheet of paper then I write on it for the equation.

903.6 divided by 29.1

Then I estimate it because I know that 29.1 can go into 903.6 about 31 times. Then I multiply 31 and 29.1 and i get around 903.6.

I hope this helps. I'm sorry if you get this wrong.
