Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

estimate answer is 21% and real answer is 20.3%

yes it is reasonable because its around the real answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

for example, in a division problem like 424 ÷ 4 − 10, we can check is our answer is reasonable or not, by estimating an approximate answer or by plugging in using the division formula.  we can round down 424 to the nearest hundreds, to estimate the answer. Since 96 (actual answer)  ≈ 90 (estimate answer), we know our solution is correct.

so round 58 to the nearest ten which is 60

35% of 60

35/100= 7/20

60/20=3

3x7= 21
