Estimating Products & Quotients — Easy Worksheet 1
Grade 4 · MathSheets Name: ____________________ Date: __________
Estimate. Round the way each question says. To divide, change the dividend to the closest compatible number: a basic fact for the divisor followed by zeros.
How to solve
To estimate a product, round first and then multiply: 47 × 6 is about 50 × 6 = 300, and 38 × 52 is about 40 × 50 = 2,000. To estimate a quotient, use compatible numbers: change the dividend to the closest number that makes a basic fact with the divisor. For 178 ÷ 3, think of 18 ÷ 3 = 6, so use 180 ÷ 3 = 60. If you rounded a factor up, the exact product is less than your estimate; if you rounded down, it is greater. An estimate tells you whether an exact answer is reasonable.
