Answer:
Estimated answer = 57.0
Exact answer = 54.04
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 19.3 is lesser than 19.5, it will be rounded down to 19.0
Since 2.8 is greater than 2.5, it will be rounded up to 3.0
<u>Estimated multiplication</u>
19.0 * 3.0 = 57.0
<u>Actual multiplication</u>
19.3 * 2.8 = 54.04
First lets change the fractions so they have common denominators:
3/5 = 6/10
The bank was 1/10, after adding the pennies it was 6/10
6/10 - 1/10 = 5/10 = 1/2
This means 400 pennies filled 1/2 the piggy bank.
There are 2 halves (1/2) to a whole ( full piggy bank).
The piggy bank can hold 400 x 2 = 800 pennies.
D. 32 square inches.
