Which choice shows the best estimate of the product 0.48 × 591? A. 1/2 x 600 B.1 x 1,000 C.5 x 500 D.50 x 600
Answer: A. 1/2 x 600
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, the given expression is,
0.48 × 591 = 283.68
In Option A,
1/2 x 600 = 300
In Option B,
1 x 1,000 = 1000
In option C,
5 x 500 = 2500
In Option D,
50 x 600 = 30,000
Since, from the given results 300 is near to 283.68.
Therefore, the choice in Option A shows the best estimate of the product 0.48 × 591.
