Answer:

I'm assuming you have 4 options, and if so, the answer is A.

Explanation:

Rounding 36.6 off to 37 will make it easier to estimate the quotient when dividing by 5. For example, I can easily come up with a solution in my head when dividing 37 to 5 but it's harder for me to come up with a solution to 36.6.
