need help now will medal Lucita does the division problem 3.302 ÷ -1.27, and gets -0.026. She doesn't understand this result because she had estimated the answer to be -3. What was Lucita's mistake? The decimal point should be to the left of the 2. The decimal point should be to the left of the 6. Lucita's estimate is too low. Lucita's estimate is too high.
