Q 1 - Estimate the product 8541 × 653 by first rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit
Answer : A
Explanation
Step 1:
Rounding 8541 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest thousand.
8541 rounds to nearest thousand as 9000 as hundreds digit is 5.
Step 2:
Rounding 653 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest hundred.
653 rounds to nearest hundred as 700 as tens digit is 5.
Step 3:
So the estimated product after rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit is
9000 × 700 = 6300000
Q 2 - Estimate the product 6853 × 535 by first rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit
Answer : B
Explanation
Step 1:
Rounding 6853 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest thousand.
6853 rounds to nearest thousand as 7000 as hundreds digit 8 > 5.
Step 2:
Rounding 535 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest hundred.
535 rounds to nearest hundred as 500 as tens digit 3 < 5.
Step 3:
So the estimated product after rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit is
7000 × 500 = 3500000
Q 3 - Estimate the product 617 × 84 by first rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit.
Answer : D
Explanation
Step 1:
Rounding 617 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest hundred.
617 rounds to 600 as tens digit 1 < 5.
Step 2:
Rounding 84 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest ten.
84 rounds down to 80 as ones digit 4 < 5.
Step 3:
So the estimated product after rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit is
600 × 80 = 48000
Q 4 - Estimate the product 3832 × 346 by first rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit
Answer : A
Step 1:
Rounding 3832 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest thousand.
3832 rounds up to 4000 as the hundreds digit 8 > 5.
Step 2:
Rounding 346 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest hundred.
346 rounds to nearest hundred as 300 as tens digit 4 < 5.
Step 3:
Explanation
So the estimated product after rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit is
4000 × 300 = 1200000
Q 5 - Estimate the product 395 × 26 by first rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit.
Answer : B
Explanation
Step 1:
Rounding 395 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest hundred.
395 rounds to nearest hundred as 400 as tens digit 9 > 5.
Step 2:
Rounding 26 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest ten.
26 rounds to nearest ten as 30 as its ones digit 6 > 5.
Step 3:
so the estimated product after rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit is
400 × 30 = 12000
Q 6 - Estimate the product 847 × 38 by first rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit.
Answer : C
Explanation
Step 1:
Rounding 847 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest hundred.
847 rounds to nearest hundred as 800 as tens digit 4 < 5.
Step 2:
Rounding 38 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest ten.
38 rounds to nearest ten as 40 as ones digit 8 > 5.
Step 3:
So the estimated product after rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit is
800 × 40 = 32000
Q 7 - Estimate the product 893 × 53 by first rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit.
Answer : D
Explanation
Step 1:
Rounding 893 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest hundred.
893 rounds to nearest hundred as 900 as tens digit 9 > 5.
Step 2:
Rounding 53 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest ten.
53 rounds to nearest ten as 50 as ones digit 3 < 5.
Step 3:
So the estimated product after rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit is
900 × 50 = 45000
Q 8 - Estimate the product 2082 × 178 by first rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit
Answer : B
Explanation
Step 1:
Rounding 2082 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest thousand.
2082 rounds to nearest thousand as 2000 as hundreds digit 0 < 5.
Step 2:
Rounding 178 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest hundred.
178 rounds to nearest hundred as 200 as tens digit 7 > 5.
Step 3:
The estimated product after rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit is
2000 × 200 = 400000
Q 9 - Estimate the product 552 × 82 by first rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit.
Answer : A
Explanation
Step 1:
Rounding 552 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest hundred.
552 rounds to nearest hundred as 600 as tens digit is 5.
Step 2:
Rounding 82 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest ten.
82 rounds to nearest ten as 80 as ones digit 2 < 5.
Step 3:
So the estimated product after rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit is
600 × 80 = 48000
Q 10 - Estimate the product 6803 × 537 by first rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit
Answer : C
Explanation
Step 1:
Rounding 6803 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest thousand.
6803 rounds to nearest thousand as 7000 as hundreds digit 8 > 5.
Step 2:
Rounding 537 so that it has only one non-zero digit is rounding it to nearest hundred.
537 rounds to nearest hundred as 500 as tens digit 3 < 5.
Step 3:
So the estimated product after rounding each number so that it has only one non-zero digit is
7000 × 500 = 3500000
