For products… • Round to a whole number and use mental math to solve. • Example: 6.43 x 4.75
Try some. • 6.3 · 9.2 = • 3.29 · 58 = • 6 packs of pencils for $2.89 each
For quotients • We need to round to “compatible numbers.” • This means they are easy to divide mentally. • Round the number after the division sign first. • Example: 11.95 2.2
