Cassidy has 10 feet of string. she uses 5/8 feet of string for each bracelet she makes. does she have enough string to make 15 bracelets? estimate 5/8 multiplied by 15 to solve the problem. then explain how you made your estimate and why you chose that method of estimation.

5/8 * 15 = 9.375000 exactly. The closest number to 9 is 3, which is below 5. This means to round the number down to the number it is closer to. 9.375 is closer to 9 than any other number, so we round it down to 9. Since Cassidy has 10 feet of string, and she uses the same amount for each bracelet, we can assume that she has enough to make 15 bracelets, possibly even 16.

Ibelieve the answer is b. y=0 would make the line horizontal across the x.
