SHORT ANSWER. Write the word or phrase that best completes each statement or answers the question. Provide an appropriate response.

2)

Roland E. Sprague Page 11

Is it reasonable to say that the answer for 63 ∙ 11 lies between 60 ∙ 10 and 65 ∙ 15. To which number do you think the answer is closer?

Roland E. Sprague Page 12

2)

Roland E. Sprague Page 13

It’s closer to the 60*10, because 11 is much closer to 10 than 15. 3)

Roland E. Sprague Page 14

You have two numbers made up of the digits 9, 8, 7, 5, 3, where each digit is used only once. One of the numbers has 3 digits and the other has 2 digits. What is the greatest product you can get and what are the corresponding numbers?

Without calculating, comment on the statement 2 ∙ 24 ≠ 3 ∙ 23.

Roland E. Sprague Page 24

6)

Roland E. Sprague Page 25

3 and 23 have no common factors with 2 and 24 so they can’t be equal 7)

Roland E. Sprague Page 26

The product of two numbers is 50. If you divide the larger number by the smaller number you get 2. What are the numbers?

Roland E. Sprague Page 27

7)

Roland E. Sprague Page 28

xy=50 x/y=2So: x=2y2y^2=50y^2=25y = 5x = 2(5) = 10The numbers are 5 and 10

8)

Roland E. Sprague Page 29

Without calculating, comment on the equation 34 ∙ 9 = 17 ∙ 18.

Roland E. Sprague Page 30

8)

Roland E. Sprague Page 31

17 is half of 34 and 18 is double of 9, so these are equal 9)

Roland E. Sprague Page 32

Pam uses front-end estimation and adds 345, 211, 418 as 900 + (50 + 10 + 20) to get the answer 980. Pat rounds the numbers and adds 350 + 200 + 400 to get 950. Who has the better answer?

Roland E. Sprague Page 33

9)

Roland E. Sprague Page 34

Pam has the better answer, since it’s closer to the real answer of 974

10)

Roland E. Sprague Page 35

Statement: If a number is divisible by 2 and by 3, then it is divisible by 6 and vice versa. Is this statement true? Give an example.

Roland E. Sprague Page 36

10)

Roland E. Sprague Page 37

Yes, that’s true.12 is divisible by 2 and 3 (and also 6)

11)

Roland E. Sprague Page 38

Why is the clustering strategy of estimation not a good one to use for adding the numbers 42, 125, 214 and 900?

Roland E. Sprague Page 39

11)

Roland E. Sprague Page 40

The numbers are very far apart, so they don’t cluster around any central number.

12)

Roland E. Sprague Page 41

During a class test the estimated answer to 141 ∙ 95 varied. One student said a second student said 140 ∙ 90 = 12,600, and a third student estimated the answer to be 141 ∙ 90 = 12,690. Who do you think has the best answer?

Roland E. Sprague Page 42

12)

Roland E. Sprague Page 43

The first student has the best answer, since it’s closest to the real answer of 13,395

13)

Roland E. Sprague Page 44

While performing a calculation, you divide a number by 5 two times to get the answer 12. You should have divided by 5 only once. What is the correct result of the calculation?

Roland E. Sprague Page 45

13)

Roland E. Sprague Page 46

12*5 = 60The right answer is 60
