Example Question #61 : How To Divide
A total of 318 cookies will be divided evenly among 12 friends? Which expression gives the best estimate of the total amount of cookies each person would get?
To find the correct solution to this question we must identify what the question is asking.
Which expression gives the best estimate of the total amount of cookies each person would get?
The word "estimate" means we want to find a approximate value and not the true value. Lets look at the numberator and denominator and round each one.
For the numerator, since 
For the denominator, since 
Using compatible numbers

Example Question #15 : Money And Time
Henry had $538.23 in his checking account at the bank before he went shopping. At the mall, he spent $43.91 at one store and $71.84 at another store. How much money does Henry have left in his bank account?
$423.52
$423.48
$422.48
$422.84
$422.48
To find the difference, you must subtract. But first you must add the two amounts he spent at the mall:
Now subtract. Line up the numbers vertically. Remember to use the rules of borrowing to subtract.
Henry now has $422.48 in his bank account.
Example Question #1 : How To Subtract
Evaluate:
 "-50+32+(-11)")
Example Question #2 : How To Subtract
The total combined weight a 4 boxes is 25 lbs. Box A weighs 4 lbs, box B weighs 10 lbs, and box D weighs 6 lbs. How much does box C weigh?
6 lbs
10 lbs
5 lbs
12 lbs
4 lbs
5 lbs
To find the weight of box C, subtract the weight of the other three boxes from the total weight.
Box C = Total - Box A - Box B - Box D
Box C = 25 lbs - 4 lbs - 10 lbs - 6 lbs
Box C = 5 lbs
