Heather estimated a quotient of 140 and found an actual quotient of 74. What should she do next? Explain.

Select the correct answer below.

A.She should check her work. The estimate tells her the quotient may not be reasonable. She may have made a mistake in calculating.
B.She should ignore the estimate. The estimate is a guess and is probably far away from the exact answer. Her quotient is correct.


She should check her work, because the answer is NOT reasonable compared to her estimate.

Her estimate may be wrong, or her answer may be wrong.
