Two students are using estimation to determine reasonable solutions to the expression 89.1 times 9.3. Katie uses the expression 90 times 10. Amaya uses the expression 89 times 9. Which is the best comparison of the estimates and the actual product?
Amaya’s because she rounded to the nearest tenth correctly if the number behind the decimal had been 5 or above Katie would be right but because the number is 4 or below you round down therefore 89.1 would be 89 and 9.3 would be 9
