Estimating means giving your best guess.

Use the clues to help you make a really good guess before you actually count the number of objects.

Look at the number of objects from left to right - they are going up by one each time. If there are 2 ladies, 3 umbrellas and 4 clubs, then there are likely to be 5 stars.

Example

First, estimate and then count the number of stars. Write the correct number below.

2	3	4	?

Answer 

The number that comes after 4 is 5.

We have 5 stars.

Let's get to work on the questions now.
