Question

Cherries cost $5.68 a pound. Will $20 be enough to buy a 4.1-pound bag of cherries? Explain how to determine whether $20 is the correct estimate of the product of $5.68(4.1).​

Answer 1

Answer: The $20 estimate is too low. $5.68 was incorrectly rounded down; it should have been rounded up to $6. The correct estimate should have been $24, so $20 will not be enough to buy 4.1 pounds of cherries.
