Explanation:

Step1: Round 156 for estimation

To estimate \( 156\div8 \), we can round 156 to a number that is easily divisible by 8. 160 is close to 156 and divisible by 8.

Step2: Perform the division

Now, calculate \( 160\div8 \). Since \( 8\times20 = 160 \), we have \( 160\div8=20 \). So, \( 156\div8 \) is about 20.

Answer:

20 (corresponding to the option "20")
