Answer: Here we have a real life multiplication situation for which an estimate make sense:-

Miley has 212 fiction books. Sharon has 3 times fiction books has many as Miley has, how many fiction books Sharon has

Solution :- Number of fiction books Miley has = 212

Number of fiction books Sharon has= 3 times 212

We know that 212 is near to 200 , so round off 212 to 200 (to the nearest hundred)

Thus the product becomes $3\times200=600$

Therefore, the estimated number of fiction books Sharon has=600
