Question

The best whole number problem to estimate 53/4-21/8=

Answer 1

Doing the equation, You get the answer 85/8 or 85 over 8, converting that into a decimal equals 10.625, now since there's a 6 after the decimal and you want to estimate your answer is 11 . I hoped I explained this well ^-^

Answer 2

It will be 85/8 because you need to first find the common denominator which kinda changes the numerator nd the denominator but not the value
