  1. EXAMPLE 2 Solving a Problem Junior Iditarod Race In the 2001 Junior Iditarod race, one team completed the race in about 18 hours over two days. The team’s average rate was 8.325 miles per hour. About how long was the race? Round to the nearest mile.

  2. EXAMPLE 2 Solving a Problem SOLUTION Use the formula Distance = Rate Time

  3. EXAMPLE 2 Solving a Problem SOLUTION Use the formula Distance = Rate Time 8.325 18

  4. EXAMPLE 2 Solving a Problem SOLUTION Use the formula Distance = Rate Time 8.325 18 66600 8325 149.850 Place the decimal point before dropping any zeroes

  5. EXAMPLE 2 Solving a Problem SOLUTION Use the formula Distance = Rate Time 8.325 18 66600 8325 149.850 Place the decimal point before dropping any zeroes ANSWER The race was about 150 miles long.

  6. EXAMPLE 3 Checking for Reasonableness Use estimation to check that the answer to Example 2 is reasonable.

  7. EXAMPLE 3 Checking for Reasonableness Use estimation to check that the answer to Example 2 is reasonable. Distance = 8.325 18

  8. EXAMPLE 3 Checking for Reasonableness Use estimation to check that the answer to Example 2 is reasonable. Distance = 8.325 18 8 18 Round 8.325 to its leading digit.

  9. EXAMPLE 3 Checking for Reasonableness Use estimation to check that the answer to Example 2 is reasonable. Distance = 8.325 18 8 18 Round 8.325 to its leading digit. = 144

  10. EXAMPLE 3 Checking for Reasonableness Use estimation to check that the answer to Example 2 is reasonable. Distance = 8.325 18 8 18 Round 8.325 to its leading digit. = 144 ANSWER Because 150 is close to 144, the distance is reasonable.

  11. for Example 2 and 3 GUIDED PRACTICE Find the product. 5. 0.9 50
