Question

Nick estimates 1/10+6/10 is about 1. Is his estimate reasonable? If not, estimate the sum

Answer 1

His estimate is reasonable

Explanation:

1/10 + 6/10 = 7/10, which can be rounded to 1

1/10, 2/10, 3/10, 4/10, 5/10, 6/10, 7/10, 8/10, 9/10, 1

As you can see, 7/10 is very close to 1.

Hope this helps!
