  1. To calculate Sheetal’s total school hours, consider 6 years of schooling with 200 school days yearly and 6 hours daily. Multiplying: 6 × 200 × 6 = 7,200 hours. This suggests her claim of 13,000 hours is nearly double the accurate figure, which is not accurate figure. Discussing such estimates encourages students to assess real-life calculations critically, enhancing their mathematical reasoning and practical estimation skills.
