For given question,
Ryder used front-end estimation to estimate the product of (–24.98)(–1.29)
We know, to use front end approximation, numbers are rounded to the greatest place value.
(-24.98) is rounded to -20
Here, 4 (4 of -24.98) is rounded here to 0
(-1.29) is rounder to -1
Here, (2 (2 of -1.29) is rounded to 0)
Now we find the product,
