Question

Estimate 80,767 - 37,291 by first rounding each number to the nearest thousand.

Answer 1

Answer:

$44000$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

$80767-37291$

To estimate by the nearest thousand, we have to look at the thousand's place value and then look at the number next to it, to see if it's greater than five.

$80767-37291$

$80767$

$7 > 5$

$81000$

$37291$

$2 < 5$

$37000$

$81000-3700=44000$

$=44000$

Hope this helps.
