Teacher Notes: Estimate, as a verb, means to make an educated guess based on information in a problem or to give an answer close to the exact number. Estimation is used when an exact answer is not needed, as in many real-life situations for which “ballpark” computations are acceptable. Good number sense enables one to estimate a quantity, estimate a measure, or estimate an answer. Estimation serves as an important companion to computation. It provides a tool for judging the reasonableness of
