To estimate the value of \( 6 \times 2 - \sqrt{2} \), we can first calculate \( 6 \times 2 \) and approximate \( \sqrt{2} \).

1. Calculate \( 6 \times 2 \):
\[
6 \times 2 = 12
\]

2. Estimate \( \sqrt{2} \):
The value of \( \sqrt{2} \) is approximately \( 1.41 \).

3. Substitute these values into the expression:
\[
12 - \sqrt{2} \approx 12 - 1.41 = 10.59
\]

Thus, the best estimate for \( 6 \times 2 - \sqrt{2} \) is approximately \( 10.59 \).

If you have specific choices to consider, please provide them, and I can help you determine which one is the closest to this estimate.
