ESTIMATE PRODUCT

2 3/8 X 1/3=


Sagot :

2 3/8 is turned into a mixed number by multiplying 2 times 8 plus 3 =19 with the same denominator 19/8 times 1/3 first i multiplied the denominators 8 times 3 =24
then the top numbers 19 times 1= 19 so the answer is 19/24 this is the exact because i did not estimate so ur answer would be somewhere close to that

Answer:

The estimate product of  given expression  [tex]2\frac{3}{8} \times\frac{1}{3}[/tex]  is [tex]\frac{18}{8} \times\frac{1}{3}=\frac{6}{8}=\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : [tex]2\frac{3}{8} \times\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

We have to find the product of given expression [tex]2\frac{3}{8} \times\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Consider the given expression [tex]2\frac{3}{8} \times\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Simplifying first the mixed fraction

[tex]2\frac{3}{8}=\frac{8\times 2+3}{8}=\frac{19}{8}\approx \frac{18}{8}[/tex]

Thus, The estimate product of  given expression  [tex]2\frac{3}{8} \times\frac{1}{3}[/tex]  is [tex]\frac{18}{8} \times\frac{1}{3}=\frac{6}{8}=\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
