Given the equation :
[tex]576\div8[/tex]We will use estimation to find the value of the given expression
So, the best estimation for the number 576 is = 600
The best estimation for the number 8 is = 10
So, the given expression is approximately = 600 ÷ 10 = 60
===================================================================
We can calculate the error of the approximation as following :
The actual value is : 576 ÷ 8 = 72
So, the difference is = 72 - 60 = 12
so, the percentage of error will be :
[tex]\frac{12}{72}\cdot100=16.7\%[/tex]
