To estimate the product of 8 1/6 and 9 3/4, you can round each mixed number to the nearest whole number and then multiply them.
First, round 8 1/6 to the nearest whole number. Since 1/6 is less than 1/2, you would round down to 8.
Next, round 9 3/4 to the nearest whole number. Since 3/4 is greater than 1/2, you would round up to 10.
Now, multiply the two whole numbers: 8 * 10 = 80.
So, the estimated product of 8 1/6 and 9 3/4 is 80.
