Miss Frankie from GCMs Elementary School explains lesson 4.5 from the Go Math series, focusing on estimating quotients using compatible numbers. She demonstrates this concept with two examples: 315 divided by 8 and 252 divided by 3. In each example, she identifies multiples of the divisor close to the dividend, adjusts the dividend to a compatible number, and performs the division to find an estimated quotient. The lesson concludes with a preview of a follow-up lesson on finding the range of estimates.
