He multiplies the numbers together to determine how much it costs to feed his dog each day. Which expression will result in the best estimate for Quincy to use to check his multiplication?

2x1

2x2

3x1

3x2

3x1

Explanation:

This problem is designed to test your knowledge of approximation. In order to obtain the amount spent on dog food each day, the expression involved is; number of cups of dog food × cost of each cup of dog food.

The number of cups of dog food is 2.75, this should be rounded up to 3

The cost of each cup of dog food is $1.25, this can be rounded down to 1 hence the correct answer is 3x1.
