Marlene estimates that 48% of 1,220 is about 600. Which estimates describes why this is a reasonable estimate?

By rounding

Step-by-step explanation:

48 % means 48 percent which 48 out of 100.

48% of 1220

= 48/100*1220

= 0.48*1220

=585.6 which is almost equal to 600

1) By rounding

Now if we round 48%  we get  50 % as 8 > 5 and 1 is added to 4 making it 5 in tens place leaving 0 in unit's place.

So 50% of 1220

0.50*1220= 610

Again rounding 610 would give 600 as 1 is less than 5 and we drop it out from the tens place leaving zero behind.

2) Complementary

IF we subtract 48% from 100% we get 52%.

So 52% of 1220 would be 634.4

IT again can be rounded in 2 ways Either 52% can be rounded to 50% and 634.4 can be rounded to 600.

Both would give 600
