When you use compatible numbers to estimate 9.4 plus 62.6 is it closer to the actual answer then using rounding?
Not in this case.
What is a reasonable estimate for the quotient of 776 divide by 38 explain your answer?
20.4211
Estimate the total weight of two boxes that weight 9.4 lb and 62.6 lb using rounding and compatible numbers which estimate is closer to the actual total weight why?
rounding:9lb+63lb=about 72lb
Use rounding and estimation to predict the approximate quotient of 285 ÷ 11?
Use rounding and estimation to predict the approximate quotient of 285 ÷ 11.
How do you estimate 3444 times 670 with rounding?
You can calculate 3444 times 670 without rounding or you can estimate it WITH rounding. But you cannot estimate it without rounding.
Explain whether it is easier to estimate the product 13.72 x 47.28 by using compatible numbers or by rounding each factor to the nearest whole number?
Compatible numbers would be easier. Rounding gives you 14 x 47. Compatible numbers could be 13 x 50 which would be closer to the actual product.
What is the difference between a compatible number and rounding numbers?
rounding numbers is to nearest ten or hundred and compatible numbers are when you can do nearest 5
What is the estimate of 2 boxes that weigh 9.4 lb and 62.6 lb using rounding and compatible numbers?
9 + 63 = 72 lbs.
How Use rounding and estimation to predict the approximate quotient of 285 and divide 11.?

Estimate the total weight of two boxes that weigh 9.4 lb and 62.6 lb using rounding and compatible numbers Which estimate is closer to the actual total weight Why?
9+63+863+9
Are rounding and compatible numbers the same thing?
Not necessarily. Take this example: 89 ÷ 44 The rounding rules are clear. 89 goes to 90, 44 goes to 40, 90 ÷ 40 = 2.25 Compatible numbers can be altered by the relationships between them. 89 is close to 90, 44 is close to 45, 90 and 45 have a relationship that is easy to compute. 90 ÷ 45 = 2 In this case, the estimate provided by compatible numbers is closer to the real total than the one provided by rounding.
What is the difference between compatible numbers and rounding?
Rounding is going to the nearest tens, hundreds, thousands etc., depending on the problem. Compatible numbers are numbers the work well with each other. Both of these are estimating.
