The Smith family opens the door of their refrigerator 32 times in one day. There are 31 days in May. About how many times is it opened in May?
Answer:
992 times
Explanation:
opens the door of their refrigerator 32 times in one day.
There are 31 days in May.
to know how many times is it opened in May
32 x 31
STEP 1 Find  half of 32 by dividing by 2
32 /2 = 16
STEP 2 Multiply
16 x 31 = 403
STEP 3 double the 403
2 x 403  = 992

One Way Use rounding and mental math.

Estimate. 32 × 31

STEP 1 Round each factor
Texas Go Math Grade 4 Lesson 8.2 Answer Key 1

STEP 2 Use mental math.
3 × 3 = 9 ← basic fact
30 × 30 = _________
Answer: 900
Explanation:
Round each factor
30 x 30
3 x 3 x 10 x 10
9 x 100 = 900 times

So, the Smith family opens the refrigerator door about 900 times during the month of May.

All 24 light bulbs in the Park family’s home are CFL light bulbs. Each CFL light bulb uses 28 watts to produce light. About how many watts will the light bulbs use when turned on all at the same time?
Texas Go Math Grade 4 Lesson 8.2 Answer Key 2
Answer:
672 watts
Explanation:
All 24 light bulbs in the Park family’s home are CFL light bulbs.
Each CFL light bulb uses 28 watts to produce light
24 x 28 = 672 watts

Another Way Use mental math and compatible numbers.

Compatible numbers are numbers that are easy to compute mentally.

Estimate. 24 × 28

STEP 1 Use compatible numbers.
Texas Go Math Grade 4 Lesson 8.2 Answer Key 3
Answer: 750
Explanation:
25 x 3 x 10
75 x 10 = 750

STEP 2 Use mental math.
25 × 3 = 75
25 × 30 = __________
Answer:
25 x 30 = 750
STEP 2 Use mental math.
25 × 3 = 9 ← basic fact
25 × 30 = 750
So, about 750 watts are used.
Explanation:
To estimate the product, we first round off the multiplier and the multiplicand to the nearest tens, hundreds, or thousands and then multiply the rounded numbers.

Try This! Estimate 26 × $79.

(A) Round to the nearest ten
Texas Go Math Grade 4 Lesson 8.2 Answer Key 4
26 × $79 is about ____________ .
Answer:
26 × $79 is about $2,054

Explanation:
In order to estimate products, we round the given factors to the required place value. Estimating products help us to check the reasonableness of an answer.
(B) Compatible numbers
Texas Go Math Grade 4 Lesson 8.2 Answer Key 5
26 × $79 is about ____________ .
Answer:
26 × $79 is about $2,054

Explanation:
Compatible numbers are pairs of numbers that are easy to multiply, mentally.
The numbers 26 and 79 are not compatible for multiplication since the product 2,054 can’t be easily calculated mentally.
To estimate 26 × 79, replace 26 and 79 with the compatible numbers 25 and 80.
