Q. Estimate the product. Round the first factor to the nearest whole number, round the second factor to the nearest ten, and then multiply.\newline83108\frac{3}{10}×\times5858\newlineThe product is approximately _____.
  1. Round to Whole Number: Round the first factor, 83108\frac{3}{10}, to the nearest whole number.\newline83108\frac{3}{10} rounds to 88 because 310\frac{3}{10} is less than half.\newlineCalculation: 831088\frac{3}{10} \approx 8
  2. Round to Nearest Ten: Round the second factor, 5858, to the nearest ten.5858 rounds to 6060 because 88 is closer to 1010 than to 00. Calculation: 586058 \approx 60
  3. Multiply Rounded Numbers: Multiply the rounded numbers.\newline8×60=4808 \times 60 = 480\newlineCalculation: 8×60=4808 \times 60 = 480
