Question

Daniel scored 162 points playing his video game.he can move to the next level of the game when he earns 275 points exactly. daniel says he needs about 100 points to get to the next level his friend Valerie says he needs about a 120 points to get to the next level explain why both of their estimates are correct. use what you know about estimation and rounding in your explanation

Answer 1

"About 100" puts Dan at 262, which is close, but not exact.

120 puts Dan at 282, which is more than enough, but still "about 275."

Both round to 300.
