Estimate the quotient.
3,594/68
My answer is 3,500/70=50
Is my answer correct?
yes, that is a good estimate
To estimate the quotient of 3,594 divided by 68, you rounded the dividend down to 3,500 and the divisor up to 70. However, this method of estimation is not entirely accurate.
A more precise estimation can be achieved by dividing each number by 10.
When you divide 3,594 by 10, you get 359.4, and when you divide 68 by 10, you get 6.8.
Now, you can divide 359.4 by 6.8, resulting in approximately 52.9.
Therefore, the estimated quotient is around 52.
