Q. Which is the most accurate way to estimate 49%49\% of 9999?\newlineChoices:\newline(A) 12×98\frac{1}{2} \times 98\newline(B) 23×98\frac{2}{3} \times 98\newline(C) 14×98\frac{1}{4} \times 98\newline(D) 34×98\frac{3}{4} \times 98
  1. Understand Problem: Step 11: Understand the problem and simplify the percentage calculation. 49%49\% of 9999 is approximately half of 9999, since 49%49\% is close to 50%50\%. Calculation: 0.49×99=48.510.49 \times 99 = 48.51
  2. Compare Choices: Step 22: Compare the simplified calculation with the choices.\newline(A) 12×98=49\frac{1}{2} \times 98 = 49\newline(B) 23×98=65.33\frac{2}{3} \times 98 = 65.33\newline(C) 14×98=24.5\frac{1}{4} \times 98 = 24.5\newline(D) 34×98=73.5\frac{3}{4} \times 98 = 73.5
  3. Determine Closest Choice: Step 33: Determine which choice is closest to the simplified calculation of 48.5148.51. Choice (A) 12×98=49\frac{1}{2} \times 98 = 49 is the closest estimate to 48.5148.51.
