Estimate Sums
  
Name ___________________________

estimate:

 You can estimate sums.

Will 9 + 3 be more than 10 or less than 10?

Think: I know 9 + 1 = 10.

3 is more than 1,

so 9 + 3 is more than 10.







12 is more than 10.




 Estimate the sum. Add to check.

Use the number line.

1.


2.
more than 10

3.

less than 10
4.
