There are 19 racks of plates in City Restaurant. Each rack has 37 plates. Which choice shows the correct estimate of how many plates are on the plate rack? (1 point) Responses 400 400 600 600 800 800 1,000

Answer 1

To estimate the total number of plates, you can multiply the number of racks by the number of plates per rack:

19 racks × 37 plates/rack.

For estimation, you can round these numbers. You could round 19 to 20 and 37 to 40:

20 racks × 40 plates/rack = 800 plates.

So, the correct estimate of how many plates are on the plate racks is 800.
