Quincy says that 3 is a good estimate for 3.4 X 0.09, is she correct? Why?
When we say estimates meaning it is not the exact answer but close to what is the exact.
Now, if Quincy estimated 3 as the product of 3.4 * .09, then let’s check if she has the correct estimates.
=> 3.4 estimates is 3
=> 0.09 estimates is 0.1
Now the answer is 0.3 and not 3.
Thus, Quincy’s estimate is wrong.

HELPPPP PLZZ ND THANK YOU SOO MUCH

Answer:

50, 40, 30, 250, 350

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 = 0.5, 0.5 x 100 = 50 (0.5 -> 5 -> 50)

2/5 = 0.4 (10 / 5 [the denominator] = 2, 0.2 x 2 [the numerator] = 0.4), 0.4 x 100 = 40 (0.4 -> 4 -> 40)

3/10 = (10 / 10 [the denominator] = 1, 0.1 x 3 [the numerator] = 0.3), 0.3 x 100 = 30 (0.3 -> 3 -> 30)

5/2 = 2.5 (2 1/2), 2.5 x 100 = 250 (2.5 -> 25 -> 250)

7/2 = 3.5 (3 1/2), 3.5 x 100 = 350 (3.5 -> 35 -> 350)

Note: I'm not sure if I understand the question completely, but I changed the fraction into a decimal and multiplied it by 100. Not sure what it means by "Divide fraction".
