The best estimate of how many stuffed bears the store ordered would be 26 crates multiplied by 21 stuffed bears per crate, which equals 546 stuffed bears.

To find the best estimate of how many stuffed bears the store ordered, multiply the number of crates by the number of bears in each crate:

Number of crates = 26
Number of bears in each crate = 21

26 crates * 21 bears/crate = 546 bears

The best estimate of how many stuffed bears the store ordered is 546 bears.

To find the best estimate of how many stuffed bears the store ordered, we can multiply the number of crates (26) by the number of stuffed bears in each crate (21).

So, the calculation would be: 26 crates × 21 bears/crate = 546 bears.

Therefore, the best estimate of how many stuffed bears the store ordered would be 546.

None of the answer choices of 600, 900, 400, or 1,000 match the calculation result of 546. Therefore, none of the provided answer choices are the best estimate.
