The band sold 385 cases of fruit they are 24 bags of fruit in each case which is the best estimate for the number of bag fruit sold A 900 bags of fruit B 1,000 bags of fruit C 5,000 bags of fruit D 10,000 bags of fruit

Answer 1

To find the total number of bags of fruit sold, we can multiply the number of cases by the number of bags in each case.

Given:

• Number of cases sold = 385
• Number of bags in each case = 24

So, we calculate:

\[ 385 \text{ cases} \times 24 \text{ bags/case} = 9,240 \text{ bags} \]

Now, considering the options provided:

A) 900 bags of fruit
B) 1,000 bags of fruit
C) 5,000 bags of fruit
D) 10,000 bags of fruit

The best estimate for the number of bags of fruit sold (9,240 bags) is closer to 10,000 bags (D) than to any other option. Therefore, the best estimate is D) 10,000 bags of fruit.
