TRY IT OUT

Decide whether an estimate or an actual measure is needed. Tell why.

1. A carpenter is going to replace a door. The opening is 3 times as tall as it is wide. How tall should he cut the door?

2. You need to fill a 30 gallon wine vat. You have a 2 quart measure. How many times will you need to fill the measure in order to fill the vat?
