Question

Find the difference between 14685 and 10682 by rounding each number to its largest place value

Answer 1

For this case, we must round off each number and then subtract both numbers.
 Its largest positional values are:
 14685 = 15000
 10682 = 11000
 We then have to subtract both numbers:
 15000-11000 = 4000
 answer:
 the difference between the numbers is 4000
