how do you estimate products of fractions?
When you do not require an exact answer but an approximation is sufficient.
Every fraction is an equivalent fraction: each fraction in decimal form has an equivalent rational fraction as well as an equivalent percentage fraction.
A fraction that has a different sign to the first fraction.
Divide the fraction by 100, and you will get the percentage of a fraction.
It is: 97/3 as an improper fraction
compare with random fraction to a benchmark fraction. to tell if a fraction is less or greater than another fraction.
how do you estimate products of fractions?
It depends on your level of numerical skill. You can convert the decimal to an approximate fraction and estimate the sum of the two fractions, or you can convert the fraction to an approximate decimal and estimate the sum of the two decimals or, if you are more able you just estimate their sum directly.
It is not particularly important.
No because you would not use it as an estimate.
round the fraction to the nearest whole number, then times the two whole number together
i think you take the problem and turn it in to a improper fraction. estimate. add. Vola!
1/5 x 8/9
10 or 1/2
67/1000 (exact) 2/30 (estimate)
you keep the whole number the same then simplify the fraction
