Describe a real life multiplication situation for which an estimate makes sense

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Let's say we're at the store and you want to buy 10 boxes of cookies for a party. Each box of cookies cost 4.89(counting tax), you don't know if you have enough money to buy the cookies with the $65.00 you have with you. You could round the price up to $5.00 and do more simple multiplication. Your total would estimate about $50.00. Now you know you have more than enough money to buy cookies. I hope that makes sense. :)

a newborn boa constrictor measure 18 inches long. An adult boa constrictor measures 9 times the lenght of the newborn plus 2 inches. how long is the adult?

Answers

newborn = 18 inches
adult boa = 9 * 18 + 2 = 164 inches

Since all the information is given, then merely put the necessary facts in order. 

Had the length of the newborn been unknown, it would have been represented by x.

9x + 2 = 164
9x = 164 - 2
9x = 162
9x/9 = 162/9
x = 18
Start with 18 × 9 = 162
Next add 162 + 2 = 164
Last put 164 on the papper
