Which is the most accurate way to estimate 25% of 53?

You can calculate them out and check which one is the most accurate

so if one of the choices was 1/3 of 50, then you would do:
1/3 in the calculator (should be 0.333...) times 50

And you can compare it with the EXACT number, which is:
0.25*53=13.25

This way you can test all the options
