There are seats for 400 students in the auditorium. There are 121 students from Anthony's school and 180 students from Jaylah's school at the performance. 

Jaylah estimates that there will be about 100 empty seats. Do you agree with Jaylah? explain or show your reasoning.

I agree with Jaylah because if we add 121+180= 301 students.

400-301=99 which is close to Jaylah's estimate of 100

There are seats for 800 students in the auditorium. There are 234 students from Madeline's school and 356 students from Sofie's school at the performance. 

Sofie estimates that there will be about 100 empty seats. Do you agree with Sofie? explain or show your reasoning.

I disagree with Sofie because when you add the amount of students together 234+356= 590. Then, if we subtract 800-590=210 which is a lot more than the estimated 100 empty seats Sofie said.
