Answer:
A
REASON:
It's not B or D because it's increasing and it's not C because if -3 - 15 is -18 then I am pretty sure it's not going to be 3 because it's multiplying
D because 3/4 is .75 so 7.75 divided by .75 equals 10.333333333333333
When you are told to estimate, you should be able to do the problem in your head.
8 7/12 is close to 8 1/2
4 7/8 is very nearly 5
4/10 is very nearly 1/2
8 1/2 - 5 - 1/2 First of all you can take the 1/2 away from 8 1/2
8 1/2 - 1/2 = 8
Now take away the 5
8 - 5 = 3
So the answer is very nearly
3 <<<<< answer.
Just for fun, I'll get the exact answer. Don't hand this one in. It is 3 37/120
You learn to estimate because you are trying to guess whether or not you've entered everything correctly into your calculator. When writing a test, this is a very handy skill to have developed.
5:4 = 10:8 = length:width
10+8=18
162÷18= 9
9×10= 90
the length of the rectangle is D. 90 ft
