Question

Monica walks 2 miles each day Monday through Friday. She walks 3 miles on Saturday. She does not walk on Sunday. Monica calculates that she will have walked 127 miles after 29 weeks.

What is an estimate for the number of miles that Monica will have walked after 29 weeks? Is her original calculation reasonable?

A: 137; her original calculation is reasonable
B: 145; her original calculation is not reasonable
C: 310; her original calculation is reasonable
D: 390; her original calculation is not reasonable

Answer 1

390, since the answer I got was 377, and we are estimating so that’s the best estimate.
