<h3>Estimating the value of numbers </h3>

From the question, we are to estimate the value of given operation. The operation is a subtraction operation.

The given subtraction operation is,

46,214 - 18,941

First, we are to round each number to the nearest thousand.

Round 46,214 to the nearest thousand

46,214 ≈ 46,000

Also,
Round 18,941 to the nearest thousand

18,941 ≈ 19,000

Now, subtract

46,000 - 19,000 = 27,000

Hence, the estimate of the given subtraction operation is 27,000

on the football team, two out of every seven players are seniors. if the team has 84 players, how many are not seniors.

zaharov [31]

There are 60 players on football team that are not seniors.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Method 1:</u>

Given

Total students = 84

Also given that

2 out of 7 are seniors

Which is 2/7

So in order to find the total number of seniors we will multiply the whole number of students to 2/7

$Senior\ students = \frac{2}{7} * 84\\= 24$

So there are 24 seniors on the football team.

Players that are not seniors = 84 - 24 = 60

There are 60 players who are not seniors.

<u>Method 2:</u>

We can divide the total number by 7, to get how many sets of 7 players will be there

= 84/7 = 12

Now,

Multiplying 12 with 2 will give us the number of seniors in football team.

12*2 = 24 seniors

So,

Not seniors =84-24 = 60

gavmur [86]

The area of a rectangle is the result of multiplying its length times its width. So the rectangles length and width are factor pairs of the area.

The number 36 has four non-equal, whole number factor pairs: (1,36) ; (2,18) ; (3,13) ; (4,9)

*note : (6,6) makes a square not rectangle

The number 15 has only two whole number factor pairs (1,15) and (3,5)
