The best estimate for the length of a car is about 13-15 feet wide.
Answer: None of the choices
Step-by-step explanation:
1. It couldn't be integers (whole numbers positive or negative), because a cube couldn't have a negative volume.
2. It could be natural numbers, but the problem is, that a volume could have decimal values, for example, 3.62 meters cubed which a natural number doesn't support.
3. Set of whole numbers is the same as integers, so it can't be that.
4. None of the choices, which in my opinion is the correct one.
I'm not sure it is correct, but I hope I helped you!
36/48 simplified is 3/4

I assume you mean one that is not rational, such as √2. In such a case, you make a reasonable estimate of it's position, and then label the point that you plot.
For example, you know that √2 is greater than 1 and less than 2, so put the point at about 1½ (actual value is about 1.4142).
For √3, you know the answer is still less than 4, but greater than √2. If both of those points are required to be plotted just make sure you put it in proper relation, otherwise about 1¾ is plenty good (actual value is about 1.7321).
If you are going to get into larger numbers, it's not a bad idea to just learn a few roots. Certainly 2, 3, and 5 (2.2361) and 10 (3.1623) shouldn't be too hard.
Then for a number like 20, which you can quickly workout is √4•√5 or 2√5, you could easily guess about 4½ (4.4721).
They're usually not really interested in your graphing skills on this sort of exercise. They just want you to demonstrate that you have a grasp of the magnitude of irrational numbers.
