Question

. A jacket costs $94.95. It is on sale for 30% off. Estimate the sale price.

Answers

Ms. Sue
What is your ESTIMATE?

Natalie
do you do 0.30*94.95????
Ms. Sue
No. You need to estimate the sale price which is 100% - 30%.

Round before you try to estimate.

Natalie
wait, so would you do 100-30=70 and then round up????
Ms. Sue
0.7 * 100 = ?

ESTIMATE. Do not do the actual math. Be sure to put the decimal point in the right place.
Natalie
so can i round to 95 dollars .30????
Natalie
what do you mean though?
Ms. Sue
What is your estimate of the sale price?

It should be between $60 and $80.
Natalie
would it be 65.95?
Ms. Sue
That is not an estimate.
It's also not an accurate price.

What is 0.7 times 100?

Natalie
70
Heather
is it 66.46?
Ms. Sue
Yes. The estimated price is about $70.
