Best Answer

It depends on what a 'reasonable estimator' is. A good estimator is usually one which is considered unbiased. That is

Expected value of the estimator = E[x] = the answer

In your case, the E[x] = 500 but the answer is actually 490. This represents a 2% margin of error. Since it's a pretty simple computation, I personally think that error is not reasonable.
