All estimating problems make the assumption you are familar with your math facts, addition and multiplication. Since students normally memorize multiplication facts for single-digit numbers, any problem that can be simplified to single-digit numbers is easily worked.
2. You are asked to estimate 47.99 times 0.6. The problem statement suggests you do this by multiplying 50 times 0.6. That product is the same as 5 × 6, which is a math fact you have memorized. You know this because
.. 50 × 0.6 = (5 × 10) × (6 × 1/10)
.. = (5 × 6) × (10 ×1/10) . . . . . . . . . . . by the associative property of multiplication
.. = 30 × 1
.. = 30
3. You have not provided any clue as to the procedure reviewed in the lesson. Using a calculator,
.. 47.99 × 0.6 = 28.79 . . . . . . rounded to cents
4. You have to decide if knowing the price is near $30 is sufficient information, or whether you need to know it is precisely $28.79. In my opinion, knowing it is near $30 is good enough, unless I'm having to count pennies for any of several possible reasons.
To estimate the volume of the chord of wood, since the wood exists cut into equal lengths and stacked evenly in a rack then we can use a cylinder as a model.
<h3>What is a cylinder?</h3>
In mathematics, a cylinder exists as a three-dimensional solid that holds two parallel bases joined by a curved surface, at a fixed distance. These bases exist normally circular (like a circle) and the center of the two bases exists joined by a line segment, which exists named the axis.
A cylinder exists as a closed solid that contains two parallel circular bases joined by a curved surface.

First find the amount of tax by multiplying 21 × 8.5%.
.085 × 21 = 1.785 = 1.79 (rounded)
Now add the tax back into the price...
21 + 1.79 = $22.79
