33
Q

What are two ways to find Factors and Multiples?

A

Listing and Factor Trees

34
Q

Estimation

A

finding a rough calculation or approximation; different estimation strategies are helpful in different situations

35
Q

Compatible Numbers

A

Estimating by rounding pairs of numbers to numbers that are easy to add, subtract, multiply, or divide
Example: 31.8÷5.2 becomes 30÷5, so the estimated value is 6

36
Q

Clustering

A

Estimating sums or products when all the numbers are close to a single value.
Example: 42+38+40+41 becomes 40+40+40+40, so the estimated value is 160

37
Q

Front-End Estimation

A

Estimating by rounding to the greatest place value or the number in front.
Example: 412+58+1,780 would become 400+60+2,000, so the estimated value is 2,460
