Explain how you can use estimation to determine if Ian’s answer is correct

pls help quick!!!

Answer 1

Answer: Ian's calculation was wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: the amount of fat in 4 cups of chicken soup= 13.24\ grams\approx13\ grams13.24 grams≈13 grams

Then, the estimated amount of fat in 1 cup of chicken soup=\frac{13}{4}

4

13

Now, to divide 13 by 4 we can use estimation that 13 is near to 12 anhd 12 divided by 4 is 3.

Therefore, the estimated amount of fat in 1 cup of chicken soup =3

But Ian calculated that the amount of fat in 1 cup soup = 0.331 which is estimated to 0.

Therefore, Ian's calculation was wrong.

Answer 2

Answer:Sample Response: Round 13.24 to 12, then divide. 12 divided by 4 is 3. Ian’s answer is incorrect because it is too small. The correct answer is 3.31 grams of fat in each cup of egg noodles.
