A beekeeper pours honey into jars. Each large jar holds 18 ounces of honey. Each small jar holds 12 ounces of honey. The beekeeper fills 32 large jars and 46 small jars. Which answer is the most reasonable estimate of the total amount of honey in the jars?

1100 ounces because 20 × 30 + 10 × 50 = 1100

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of honey contained in each large jar = 18 ounces

Number of large jar filled = 32

Total amount of honey in large jars:

= 18 ounces × 32

= 576 ounces

Amount of honey contained in each small jar = 12 ounces

Number of small jars filled = 46

Total amount of honey in small jars:

= 12 ounces × 46

= 552 ounces

The total amount of hones in the jars will be the addition of the honey in the small and large jars. This will be:

= 576 ounces + 552 ounces

= 1128 ounces

The most reasonable estimate will be:

1100 ounces because 20 × 30 + 10 × 50 = 1100

56
