$27 x 18 students = 486 actual cost.

$30 x 10 students = 300 estimated total cost using compatible numbers.
$20 x 20 students = 400 estimated total cost using compatible numbers. (better option because it is nearer to the actual cost)

Compatible numbers are numbers that can easily be multiplied or divided using mental computation.

Compatible number for 27 and 18 can be: 30 and 20 OR 20 and 20 OR 30 and 10 OR 20 and 10.

However, there is a rule in multiplying the compatible numbers, when one number is increased the other number must be decreased.

So 27 can be increased to 30; while 18 can be decreased to 10 to get a product of 300.

27 can be decreased to 20; while 18 can be increased to 20 to get a product of 400.

Which property of multiplication is shown? 6 · 1 = 1 · 6
saw5 [17]

Answer: Commutative property of multiplication  

Step-by-step explanation: The problem 6 · 1 = 1 · 6 demonstrates the commutative property of multiplication.

In other words, the commutative property of multiplication says that changing the order of the factors does not change the product.  

So for example here, 6 · 1 is equal to 6 and 1 · 6 also equals 6.

Since 6 = 6, we can easily see that 6 · 1 must be equal to 1 · 6.

In more general terms, the commutative property of multiplication can be written as a · b = b · a where <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are variables that can represent any numbers.

theresa went bowling on tuesday night. she bowled scores of 150, 165, and 165. what was her mean average score?
aleksley [76]
So, to do this, all you need to do is add up all the values, and then, with that number, divide by how many values are given.

150+165+165= 480
480/3= 160

If you know the area of a rectangle can you predict its perimeter? Explain
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

No.  The area doesn't tell you the dimensions, and you need
the dimensions if you want the perimeter.

If you know the area, you only know the <em><u>product</u></em> of the length and width,
but you don't know what either of them is.

In fact, you can draw an infinite number of <em><u>different</u></em> rectangles
that all have the <em>same</em> area but <em><u>different</u></em> perimeters.

Here.  Look at this.
I tell you that a rectangle's area is 256.  What is its perimeter ?

-- If the rectangle is 16 by 16, then its perimeter is 64 .
-- If the rectangle is 8 by 32, then its perimeter is 80 .
-- If the rectangle is 4 by 64, then its perimeter is 136 .
-- If the rectangle is 2 by 128, then its perimeter is 260 .
-- If the rectangle is 1 by 256, then its perimeter is 514 .
-- If the rectangle is 0.01 by 25,600 then its perimeter is 51,200.02
