Question

sharika bought 9.16 gallons of gasoline prices at $1.99 9/10 per gallon. Estimate the total cost.

Answer 1

To estimate the total cost, I would say that it is roughly $2 per gallon, and she is buying roughly 9 gallons, so the total cost ≈ 2 x 9 = $18.

Answer 2

9.16 * 1.99

= 9.16 * 1
+ 9.16 * 0.99 = around 9.07

9.16 + 9.07 = 18.23

$18.23
