What is an estimation of 492.6 divided by 48

Answer 1

Answer:

10.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the estimation of 492.6 divided by 48.

First of all, we will round 492.6 to nearest hundreds and 48 to nearest tens.

Since tens digit of 492.6 is greater than 5, so we will round up to nearest hundred as: $492.6\approx 500$

Since ones digit of 48 is greater than 5, so we will round up to nearest tens as: $48\approx 50$.

Now, we will find the quotient as:

$\frac{500}{50}=10$

Therefore, an estimation of 492.6 divided by 48 would be 10.
