Write a number sentence to solve the following problem, use "n" as your variable for what you are trying to find. (do not answer the question, "n" will be in place of the answer). Pam and Bob went to the store to buy groceries for their mother. They have $40 to spend and the bill came out to $27.43. How much change will they get?
Correct Answer
$40 - $27.43 = n
$40.00 - $27.43 = nExplanation
The number sentence is used to calculate the change that Pam and Bob will receive after buying groceries. It subtracts the total bill of $27.43 from the amount they have, which is $40. The variable "n" represents the change they will get.Rate this question:

Estimate to solve. Write the estimated sum and overestimate or underestimate your answer. 568 - 335
Correct Answer
230 overestimateExplanation
The estimated sum of 568 - 335 is 230, and it is an overestimate. This means that the actual answer is likely to be lower than 230.Rate this question:
- 12.
Tell whether the following problem would be an overestimate or an underestimate. 498 + 334
Correct Answer
underestimateExplanation
The given problem is an addition problem. When adding two numbers, an underestimate occurs when we round down or ignore any smaller values. In this case, the numbers 498 and 334 are being added. To underestimate the sum, we can round down 498 to 400 and round down 334 to 300. Adding these rounded numbers gives us 700, which is less than the actual sum of 832. Therefore, the answer is an underestimate.Rate this question:

Round to the nearest hundred to estimate the difference. Write the estimated difference. 1,245 - 456
Correct Answer
700Explanation
To estimate the difference between 1,245 and 456 to the nearest hundred, we round both numbers to the nearest hundred. 1,245 rounds to 1,200 and 456 rounds to 500. The difference between these rounded numbers is 700.Rate this question:
