Jamie's estimate is reasonable.
Explanation:
The expression is [tex]1.43 \times\left(-\frac{16}{31}\right)[/tex]
Dividing the term [tex]\left(-\frac{16}{31}\right)[/tex], we get,
[tex]1.43 \times(-0.51613)[/tex]
Multiplying the terms, we have,
[tex]-0.7380659[/tex]
But, Jamie's estimate is [tex]-0.75[/tex]
The difference between the two values is [tex]0.0119341[/tex] which is negligible.
Hence, Jamie's estimate is reasonable.
