Question

Grace got a haircut for $26.95, bought three shirts on sale for $18.50 each and a pair of jeans for $48, and purchased two CDs for $18.50 each. Round each amount to the nearest ten dollars to find a reasonable estimate of how much Grace spent.

Answer 1

26.95 + 18.5 * 3 + 48 + 18.5 * 2

18.5 * 3 = 55.5

18.5 * 2 = 37

37 + 55.5 + 48 + 26.95 = 167.45

= $167.5
