Shen’s mother gave him $10 to go buy groceries. He picked up a gallon of milk for $3.49, three pounds of oranges that cost $1.14 per pound, and a box of cereal for $3.46. Shen used front-end estimation to determine whether he had enough money for the groceries. How much did he estimate the total cost would be?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Gallon of milk: $3.49
3lbs oranges: $1.14(3) = $3.42
Box of cereal: $3.46

Front end estimation is taking the number in front and the rest of the numbers coming after it will be zeroes.

Using front end estimation:
$3.49 => $3.00
$3.42 => $3.00
$3.46 => $3.00

Add all these up; Shen estimated the total cost of the groceries would be $9.00.
