A machine produced 85,700 glass bottles on Friday. It produced 12,420 fewer bottles on Saturday than on Friday. Of the bottles produced on Saturday, 951 had cracks and were sent for recycling. The rest of the bottles from the two days were sold. How many bottles were sold in all?
There were 158,029 bottles sold.
Explanation:
85,700 - 12,420 = 73,280 bottles produced on Saturday. 951 were broken.
73,280 - 951 = 72,329 bottles were useable from Saturday's production
85,700 + 72,329 = 158,029 bottles were sold in all from Friday and Saturday.

Estimate the answer by rounding to the highest place value shared by both numbers.
The highest shared place value is the thousands.
4,000 + 5,000 = 9,000
Which number has a 5 which is 100 times greater than the value of the 5 in 2,345?
a) 672,547
b) 2,546
c) 7,005
b) 2,546. Explanation: The value of the 5 in 2,345 is 5 ones. Multiply 5 x 100 to determine the value of 100 times greater than 5 ones. The only number this works for is 2,546 because the 5 in this number is in the hundreds.

Ana estimates the sum of 32,784 and 50,438 by rounding to the nearest hundred, nearest ten thousand, and nearest thousand. Which method makes more sense?
Rounding to the nearest ten thousand makes more sense because this is the greatest value shared by both numbers and is thus more likely to give a more reasonable estimated answer.

Andy can buy bottles of water in packages of 6 for $13.50 or in packages of 4 for $10.72.
How much money does he save by buying 24 bottles of water at the better price?
Step 1: Find how many packages of 6 would be needed.
24 ÷ 6 = 4
Step 2: Find the cost using packages of 6.
4 × $13.50 = $54.00
Step 3: Find how many packages of 4 would be needed.
24 ÷ 4 = 6
Step 4: Find the cost using packages of 4.
6 × $10.72 = $64.32
Step 5: Subtract the better price from the other price.
$64.32 − $54.00 = $10.32
He will save $10.32.
