To most closely estimate the difference, I would round 62,980 to the nearest thousand, so it will be 63,000. That is because when rounding, 63,000 is large enough so that adding will be easy, and 62,980 is relatively close to 63,000.
I would round 49,625 to the nearest thousand, since it would make the subtraction easier and 49,625 is only 375 units away from 50,000.
So we have an equation: 2w=12-4w Firstly, let's simplify, and divide all terms by 2: w=6-2w Now, we add 2w over to the other side: 3w=6 And finally, we divide both sides by 3: w=2 Hope this helps!
