Estimate 4704 - 1193 by first rounding each number to the nearest hundred.

Answer 1

`3500`

Explanation:

Given the following question:

`4704-1193`

To estimate we to the nearest hundred we have to look at the number next to the hundreds place value to determine if it's greater than five.

`4704`

`0 < 5 = 4700`

`1193`

`9 > 5 = 1200`

`4700 - 1200`

`4700 -1200=3500`

`=3500`

Hope this helps.
