At a ware house,127 delivery trucks were loaded with 48 packages on the truck.

estimate the total number of packages on the trucks. write an equation to model your work.

did you calculate a overestimate or an underestimate? explain how you know.

n = 127 x 48 =6,096 packages

overestimate

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation:

n = t x pt

Where:

n= total number of packages

t = number of trucks

pt = packages in each truck

Replacing with the values given:

n = 127 x 48 =6,096

It is an overestimate since the number obtained is considering that all trucks are full.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
