Javier rounded to the nearest half to estimate the product of 3 and two-fifths and Negative 3 and StartFraction 7 over 8 EndFraction. How do the estimate and the actual product compare? The actual product is less than the estimate. The numbers differ by less than one. The actual product is greater than the estimate. The numbers differ by less than one. The actual product is less than the estimate. The numbers differ by more than one. The actual product is greater than the estimate. The numbers differ by more than one.

- The actual product is less than the estimate

- The numbers differ by less than one

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Product of 3 and two-fifths &

Required

Compare actual result with approximated result

Calculating the actual result;

3 and two-fifths means

So, the Product of 3 and two-fifths & becomes

Convert fractions to improper

Combine fractions to form one

Multiply numerators and denominator

Convert fraction to decimal

The nearest half of -13.175 is -13

Hence;

By comparison:-

- The actual product (-13.175) is less than the estimate (-13)

- The difference between both results is less than 1;

The difference is calculated as follows

Difference = |Actual Product - Estimate|

Difference = |-13.175 - (-13)|

Difference = |-13.175 +13|

Difference = |-0.175|

Difference = 0.175
