This is a game for 2 to 4 players. The aim of the game is to correctly estimate the correct price of an item. The game host holds all the item cards. Players are assigned an item and take it in turns to guess the price. The person closest to the correct answer ‘wins’ that item and is given the card. The first person with 3 cards wins!

Estimating and checking calculations
Susie has worked out answers to these calculations. Have a look through and estimate what you think the answer should be. Don’t spend ages working out the exact answer! Give Susie a tick if you think she is right or a cross if you think she is wrong. In the last column, explain why she is right or wrong. Afterwards, use a calculator to check whether Susie’s answers were right or not.
