Estimate the product of the rational numbers \(\frac{3}{4}\) and \(\frac{5}{8}\) without performing the multiplication.
Then, we multiply the rounded numbers to estimate the product.
Step 1 :First, we round \(\frac{3}{4}\) to the nearest whole number, which is 1.
Step 2 :Next, we round \(\frac{5}{8}\) to the nearest whole number, which is 1.
Step 3 :Then, we multiply the rounded numbers to estimate the product.
