## Mental arithmetic- using the distributive property ( [link] )

For problems 91-110, compute each product using the distributive property.

$\text{15}\cdot \text{33}$

$\text{15}\left(\text{30}+3\right)=\text{450}+\text{45}=\text{495}$

$\text{15}\cdot \text{42}$

$\text{35}\cdot \text{36}$

$\text{35}\left(\text{40}-4\right)=\text{1400}-\text{140}=1,\text{260}$

$\text{35}\cdot \text{28}$

$\text{85}\cdot \text{23}$

$\text{85}\left(\text{20}+3\right)=1,\text{700}+\text{225}=1,\text{955}$

$\text{95}\cdot \text{11}$

$\text{30}\cdot \text{14}$

$\text{30}\left(\text{10}+4\right)=\text{300}+\text{120}=\text{420}$

$\text{60}\cdot \text{18}$

$\text{75}\cdot \text{23}$

$\text{75}\left(\text{20}+3\right)=1,\text{500}+\text{225}=1,\text{725}$

$\text{65}\cdot \text{31}$

$\text{17}\cdot \text{15}$

$\text{15}\left(\text{20}-3\right)=\text{300}-\text{45}=\text{255}$

$\text{38}\cdot \text{25}$

$\text{14}\cdot \text{65}$

$\text{65}\left(\text{10}+4\right)=\text{650}+\text{260}=\text{910}$

$\text{19}\cdot \text{85}$

$\text{42}\cdot \text{60}$

$\text{60}\left(\text{40}+2\right)=2,\text{400}+\text{120}=2,\text{520}$

$\text{81}\cdot \text{40}$

$\text{15}\cdot \text{105}$

$\text{15}\left(\text{100}+5\right)=1,\text{500}+\text{75}=1,\text{575}$

$\text{35}\cdot \text{202}$

$\text{45}\cdot \text{306}$

$\text{45}\left(\text{300}+6\right)=\text{13},\text{500}+\text{270}=\text{13},\text{770}$

$\text{85}\cdot \text{97}$

## Estimation by rounding fractions ( [link] )

For problems 111-125, estimate each sum using the method of rounding fractions. After you have made an estimate, find the exact value. Compare the exact and estimated values. Results may vary.

$\frac{3}{8}+\frac{5}{6}$

$\frac{1}{2}+1=1\frac{1}{2}\left(1\frac{5}{\text{24}}\right)$

$\frac{7}{\text{16}}+\frac{1}{\text{24}}$

$\frac{7}{\text{15}}+\frac{\text{13}}{\text{30}}$

$\frac{\text{14}}{\text{15}}+\frac{\text{19}}{\text{20}}$

$\frac{\text{13}}{\text{25}}+\frac{7}{\text{30}}$

$\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{3}{4}\left(\frac{\text{113}}{\text{150}}\right)$

$\frac{\text{11}}{\text{12}}+\frac{7}{8}$

$\frac{9}{\text{32}}+\frac{\text{15}}{\text{16}}$

$\frac{5}{8}+\frac{1}{\text{32}}$

$2\frac{3}{4}+6\frac{3}{5}$

$2\frac{3}{4}+6\frac{1}{2}=9\frac{1}{4}\left(9\frac{7}{\text{20}}\right)$

$4\frac{5}{9}+8\frac{1}{\text{27}}$

$\text{11}\frac{5}{\text{18}}+7\frac{\text{22}}{\text{45}}$

$\text{11}\frac{1}{4}+7\frac{1}{2}=\text{18}\frac{3}{4}\left(\text{18}\frac{\text{23}}{\text{30}}\right)$

$\text{14}\frac{\text{19}}{\text{36}}+2\frac{7}{\text{18}}$

$6\frac{1}{\text{20}}+2\frac{1}{\text{10}}+8\frac{\text{13}}{\text{60}}$

$6+2+8\frac{1}{4}=\text{16}\frac{1}{4}\left(\text{16}\frac{\text{11}}{\text{30}}\right)$

$5\frac{7}{8}+1\frac{1}{4}+\text{12}\frac{5}{\text{12}}$

$\text{10}\frac{1}{2}+6\frac{\text{15}}{\text{16}}+8\frac{\text{19}}{\text{80}}$

$\text{10}\frac{1}{2}+7+8\frac{1}{4}=\text{25}\frac{3}{4}\left(\text{25}\frac{\text{27}}{\text{40}}\right)$
