need to estimate to find quotient:
-476 / 90
ESTIMATE IS -450 / 90 IS -5
IM NOT UNDERSTANDING ESTIMATE FOR
538/ (-63)
479 / (-61)
See my last response.
To estimate the quotient of -476 divided by 90, you can round both numbers to the nearest tens place. Rounding -476 to the nearest tens place gives you -480, and rounding 90 to the nearest tens place gives you 90. So the estimate is -480 divided by 90, which equals -5.
Now, let's use the same approach to estimate the quotient of 538 divided by -63. Rounding 538 to the nearest tens place gives you 540, and rounding -63 to the nearest tens place gives you -60. Thus, the estimate is 540 divided by -60, which equals -9.
Similarly, for 479 divided by -61, rounding 479 to the nearest tens place gives you 480, and rounding -61 to the nearest tens place gives you -60. This gives an estimate of 480 divided by -60, which equals -8.
Please note that these are only estimates and rounding can introduce some level of error. If you need the exact quotient, you can perform the division using a calculator or long division method.
