Describe a real life multiplication situation for which an estimate make sense

A real life multiplication situation for which estimates will make sense has been described in the explanation below.

A real life example to show why estimates make sense is;

Peter wants to go to the movie cinema with his family of 4 people and the cost of a ticket for the movie is $9.8. Estimate how much would be required for him and the family of 4 to pay for the tickets.

To solve this;

Number of people that require tickets - 5 people

Now, we see that the cost of one ticket is $9.8. To make this an estimate, since 9.8 is close to 10 we will round it off to $10.

Thus,

Total amount the should budget for the tickets = 5 × $10

Total amount they should budget for the tickets = $50

Here we have a real life multiplication situation for which an estimate make sense:-

Maria has 102 cans of cold drink. Sareena has thrice as many cans of cold drink Maria has. Estimate the number of cans of cold drink Sareena has?

Solution :- Number of cans Maria has = 102

Number of cans Sareena has= 3 times 102

We know that 102 is near to 100 , so round off 109 to 100 (to the nearest hundred)

Thus the product becomes

Therefore, the estimated number of cans Sareena has=300

60
