The band sold 385 cases of fruit there are 24 bags of fruit in each cake, which is the best estimate of numbers of bags of fruit sold

1 answer

To estimate the number of bags of fruit sold, you can multiply the number of cases by the number of bags per case.

Given:

  • Number of cases sold = 385
  • Number of bags per case = 24

Now, calculate the total number of bags sold:

\[ 385 \times 24 \]

To find a quick estimate, you can round 385 to 400 for simplicity:

\[ 400 \times 24 = 9600 \]

So, the best estimate of the number of bags of fruit sold is approximately 9,600 bags.

If you calculate the exact number:

\[ 385 \times 24 = 9,240 \]

Therefore, the exact number of bags sold is 9,240 bags, but the best estimate would still be around 9,600 bags.
