A singer is recording a CD. The lengths of the three songs are 3.4 minutes, 2.78 minutes, and 4.19 minutes. About how much recording time will be on the CD?

Use rounding to estimate.

Round to the nearest whole number. Then add.
Texas Go Math Grade 5 Lesson 1.6 Answer Key 1
Remember
To round a number, determine the place to which you want to round.
. If the digit to the right is less than 5, the digit in the rounding place stays the same.
. If the digit to the right is 5 or greater, the digit in the rounding place increases by 1.
So,

So,
There will be about 10 minutes of recording time on the CD.

A.
Round to the nearest whole dollar. Then subtract.
Texas Go Math Grade 5 Lesson 1.6 Answer Key 2
To the nearest dollar, $27.95 – $11.72 is about _________.
Answer:
The given numbers are: 27.95 and 11.72
Now,
When we round off the given numbers to the nearest whole numbers,
The numbers will become: 28 and 12
Now,

Hence, from the above,
We can conclude that
To the nearest dollar, the subtraction of the given values is about $16

B.
Round to the nearest ten dollars. Then subtract.
Texas Go Math Grade 5 Lesson 1.6 Answer Key 3
To the nearest ten dollar, $27.95 – $11.72 is about _________.
Answer:
The given numbers are: 27.95 and 11.72
Now,
When we round off the given numbers to the nearest tenths,
The numbers will become: 28.0 and 11.7
So,

Hence, from the above,
We can conclude that
The value of the given numbers when rounded off to the nearest tenth is about $16.2

Do you want an overestimate or an underestimate when you estimate the total cost of items you want to buy? Explain.
Answer:
Easy all you have to do it estimate.
Example:
$11.62 + $7.86 = $19.48
$11.62 rounds to 12 and $7.80 rounds to $8.00
So,
The round to the total would be $20 so this would be an over estimation

Use Benchmarks Benchmarks are familiar numbers used as points of reference. You can use the benchmarks 0, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, and 1 to estimate decimal sums and differences.

Example

Use benchmarks to estimate. 0.76 – 0.22
Locate and graph a point on the number line for each decimal. Identify which benchmark each decimal is closer to.
Texas Go Math Grade 5 Lesson 1.6 Answer Key 4
So, 0.76 – 0.22 is about ____________.
Answer:
We know that,
“Benchmarks” are the numbers that act as a point of reference and the benchmark numbers are: 0, 0.25, 0.50, and 0.75
Now,


So,
The difference between 0.76 and 0.22 with the reference to the benchmarks will be:

Hence, from the above,
We can conclude that

Use the Example to explain how using rounding or benchmarks to estimate a decimal difference can give you different answers.
Answer:
To estimate means to make a rough guess or calculation. To round means to simplify a known number by scaling it slightly up or down. Rounding is a type of estimation. Both methods can help you make educated approximations and can be used in everyday life for tasks related to money, time, or distance.
A benchmark helps a student estimate the general number a fraction or decimal number is. For example, a student can quickly learn that the fraction \(\frac{1}{2}\) means a half, 0.50, or 50 percent because of intuition.
