Estimate the products of 79×37 and 62×49 . Which choice shows the sum of the estimates? (1 point) Responses 5,800 5,800 4,800 4,800 7,200 7,200 6,200

1 answer

To estimate the products of \( 79 \times 37 \) and \( 62 \times 49 \):

  1. Estimate \( 79 \times 37 \):

    • Round \( 79 \) to \( 80 \) and \( 37 \) to \( 40 \).
    • So, \( 79 \times 37 \) is estimated as: \[ 80 \times 40 = 3200 \]
  2. Estimate \( 62 \times 49 \):

    • Round \( 62 \) to \( 60 \) and \( 49 \) to \( 50 \).
    • So, \( 62 \times 49 \) is estimated as: \[ 60 \times 50 = 3000 \]
  3. Sum of the estimates:

    • Now, add the two estimates: \[ 3200 + 3000 = 6200 \]

Thus, the choice that shows the sum of the estimates is 6,200.
