Answer:
8970
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to round 9272 so that it has only 1 nonzero digit, look at the hundred digit, If the number is greater or equal to 5, add 1 to the thousand figure. If this is not the case, add zero
The hundred digit is 2 which is less than 5, so 0 is added to 9. the number becomes 9000
In order to round 28 so that it has only 1 nonzero digit, look at the units digit, If the number is greater or equal to 5, add 1 to the tens figure. If this is not the case, add zero
The units digit is greater than 5, so 1 would be added to tens digit. the number becomes 30
9000 - 30 = 8970
