Provide an appropriate response.Pam uses front-end estimation and adds 345, 211, 418 as 900 + (50 + 10 + 20) to get the answer 980. Pat rounds up the numbers and adds 350 + 200 + 400 to get 950. Who has the better answer?

What will be an ideal response?


Pam, as her adjustments to the actual numbers are much closer.
