280

250

Answer explanation

To estimate 47 rounded to the nearest ten is 50, and 6 rounded to the nearest ten is 10. Thus, 50 x 10 = 500. However, for the product of 47 x 6, rounding 47 to 50 gives a closer estimate of 250.

25

20

40

Answer explanation

30 is a compatible number for estimating 29 x 4 because it is close to 29 and simplifies the multiplication to 30 x 4, which is easier to calculate (120). The other options are either too low or too high for accurate estimation.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

Overestimate

Underestimate

Answer explanation

Rounding 52 down to 50 decreases the value, leading to a product of 50 x 9 = 450. The actual product of 52 x 9 = 468 is greater, making the estimate an underestimate.

500

560

600

Answer explanation

To estimate 63, round to 60. For 8, round to 10. The product is 60 x 10 = 600. However, using 60 x 9 (since 8 is closer to 9) gives 540, and 63 x 8 is closer to 560. Thus, the best estimate is 560.

70

75

80

60

Answer explanation

To estimate the product of 76 and 5, we look for a number close to 76 that is easy to multiply by 5. 75 is a compatible number because it is close to 76 and simplifies the calculation (75 x 5 = 375).
