Answer:

Gross estimate: 1/2

Good estimate: 1/3

Exact answer: 29/88

Step-by-step explanation:

You ask for an estimate.

7/8 is close to 1

6/11 is close to 1/2

1-1/2 = 1/2

This is a gross estimate.

The exact answer is found by getting a common denominator of 88

7/8 *11/11= 77/88

6/11*8/8 = 48/88

77/88 -48/88 =29/88

This is just a little less than 1/3

Rounding our answer 29 is close to 30  and 88 is close to 90

30/90 = 1/3
