A student performs the following estimations. 35+192 230 258+350 610 947+1032 1980 Based on these estimations, which of the following is the student’s estimate of 694+7618?
A. 8320
B. 8500
C. 8300
D. 8310
Here we need to find the actual values of the additions and see the trend the student will use to estimate the given problem. The exact sum is as follows
35+192=227
258+350=608
947+1032=1979
From the above calculations, it is evident that the student rounds up or down the ones place values. So, in the problem we need to approximate 694+7618.
694+7618=8312
We can approximate 8312 based on the provided choices is 8310.
Therefore, the Correct Answer is D.

Q #1: Three friends are sharing a burger. One friend eats a quarter of the burger. The other two friends equally divide the rest among themselves. What portion of the burger did each of the other two friends receive?
A. 1/6
B. 1/4

Remaining amount=1-1/4=4/4-1/4=3/4
Thus, ¾ of burger is left for two friends to share among themselves. Then, each friend will get
So, the other two friends will each get 3/8 of the burger.

Q #3: 3(x-2)=12 Solve the equation above for x. Which of the following is the correct answer?
A. 6
B. -2
C. -4
D. 2
Answer Explanation
: In order to solve for the value of x, we use the order of operations as follows:
The first step is to divide both sides by 3
Add 2 to both sides to eliminate it from the left-hand side of the equation
x-2+2=4+2
x = 6
Thus, the value of x is 6.
