benefit of the Fermi Method, is that it considers units when making an estimation. Fartoo often students arrive at an answer that is off by a factor of the units. They multiply and dividecorrectly, but do not pay attention to their units in the process. Unfortunately, this problem hasfollowed a few students into their careers. Major disasters, such as the NASA Orbiter and GimliGlider are a result of this. In the case of the Gimli Glider, an Air Canada aircraft, the fuel wasweighed and added in kilograms, rather than imperial units (1kg≠ 1lb)11. However, Fermiaccounts for this because your units must cancel in order to achieve your final answer. Fermi canalso be used as an inspection to make sure that your calculated value is in the correct range
