Kelly bought 8 boxes of sunglasses at a swap meet. Each box had 15, 20, or 25 pairs in it. Kelly estimates a reasonable number of sunglasses to be 110.

Is this a reasonable estimate?

No. The reason is that if all the boxes had even 15 pairs in them, the least amount, it would be 120 not even 110. An ideal estimate would be something in between 200 and 120.

Answer:

NO

Explanation:

Because 8 * 15 = 120 so even if they all had 15 in hem here would be at LEAST 115
