Question

Estimate 7956 - 5853 by first rounding each number to the nearest hundred.

Answer 1

`2100`

Explanation:

Given the following question:

`7956-5853`

To estimate by the nearest hundred, we have to find the hundreds place value and then look at the number next to it, to find out if that number is greater than or equal to five.

`7956-5853`

`7956`

`5=5`

`8000`

`5853`

`5=5`

`5900`

`8000-5900=2100`

`=2100`

Hope this helps.
