Use estimation to determine which of the following expressions is greater. Explain how you got your answer. 5×( 1.9 + 3.15) and 6.9 × (0.2 + 3.2)

Respuesta :

Let's round off 5×( 1.9 + 3.15):  We get 5(2 + 3) = 5(5) = 25

Let's also round off 
6.9 × (0.2 + 3.2)L  We get 7(0+3) = 21

The first expression is greater.
