Answer:

20×4=80

4×2×10=80

Explanation:

To estimate the result of multiplication (product), round the numbers to some close numbers that you can easily multiply mentally.

One method of estimation is to round all factors to the biggest digit (place value) they have.

you need to round 24 to the nearest ten which is 20 and leave 4 as it is
