how can estimation be used to make sure the answer is reasonable?

a.
adam needs $160.25 more.
estimation: $28 + $32 = $60.
$100 + $60 = $160.
adam needs about $160 more to buy his video game system.

b.
adam needs $39.75 more.
estimation: $28 + $32 = $60.
$100 – $60 = $40.
adam needs about $40 more to buy his video game system.

c.
adam needs $30.13 more.
estimation: $28 + $32 = $60.
$60 ÷ 2 = $30.
adam needs about $30 more to buy his video game system.
