How to Estimate Decimal Quotient

Preview

To estimate a decimal quotient you need to understand that you will have to estimate the dividend and the divisor.So for example if you have the problem 5.66/2.89 all you have to do is estimate the number after the decimal point so 5.66 will be rounded to 6 and the 2.89 will be rounded to 3.Our problem now will become 6/3 and we all know that since 3x2=6 then our answer will be 2.To understand this topic better i suggest you watch the video . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . and try some of these: 

Example

71.99/7.56=
34.78/4.90=
1.98/0.90=
63.69/31.71=
20.57/6.51=
