Answer:

600 books

Step-by-step explanation:

The bin's dimensions are

5 by 2 by 3

THe volume of the bin is the multiplication of the 3 dimensions given.

Volume of Bin = 5 * 2 * 3 = 30 cubic feet

Now, volume of each book would be gotten the same way. The dimensions of one book is:

1 by 0.5 by 0.1

Volume of 1 book = 1 * 0.5 * 0.1 = 0.05 cubic feet

The number of books that will fit in the bin would be:

30/0.05 = 600 books

In a science experiment, Shelly has to weigh a compound in grams. The balance in her school measures in milligrams (mg). Shelly
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
We know, 1 g = 1000 mg
so, 1 mg = 1/1000 g
then, 8,450 mg = 1/1000 * 8,450 = 8.450 g

In short, Your Answer would be: 8.450 Grams

Describe a real life multiplication situation for which an estimate makes sense
Drupady [299]
If you are trying to create a garden of potted plants, you would find out how much soil each pot needs/holds and multiply that by how many pots you plan to use. then you would go to the store for potting soil, which let’s say came in smaller packs and you need to purchase multiple. use multiplication estimation to estimate how many bags you’d need.
I know this is a dumb example...sorry this is one I remember from my fourth grade math teacher ahah
