Question

Explain how to make these couculations mentaly a. 99+54 b.244-99

Answer 1

PLEASE MARK BRAINLIEST!

Answer:

Use estimation

Step-by-step explanation:

A) 99 + 54

estimate that 99 is 100

estimate that 54 is 55

Add 100 and 55 together

100 + 55 = 155

Remember that you added 1 to 99 and 1 to 55

So you must subtract 2 from 155

155 - 2 = 153

Your answer is 153.

B) 244 - 99

estimate that 244 is 245

estimate that 99 is 100

Add 245 and 100 together

245 + 100 = 345

Remember that you added 1 to 245 and 1 to 99

So you must subtract 2 from 345

345 - 2 = 343

Your answer is 343.

Remember that you are doing all of this in your head!

I hope this helps!
