How do you use compatible numbers to estimate the quotient of [tex]595[/tex] divided by [tex]25[/tex]?

Question

Well, 25 certainly doesn't divide evenly into 595, but it does divide into 600, which is very close to 595. So if we divide 600 by 25, we can get a rough estimate of what 595 divided by 25 is. 25 600 = 6 ∗ 25 100 = 6 ∗ 4 = 24

To estimate 595 divided by 25 , round 595 to 600 and keep 25 the same to make it easier. Then, divide: 25 600 ​ = 24 . The estimated quotient is approximately 24 .
