What is the work of estimating quotients

1. Estimating quotient is one way of solving a particular division problem in an easy way.

When you do estimation, you round off the numbers to its nearest value to be able to get the answer quickly.

For example:

the dividend = 147

the divisor is = 33

So, instead of using 147, we use 150

And instead of using 33, we use 30

=> 150 / 30 = 5

This, way, we were able to calculate our answer quickly base on our estimates
