Give a rough estimate $(by\ rounding\ off\ to\ nearest\ hundreds)$ and also a closer estimate $( by\ rounding\ off\ to nearest\ tens)$:$439+334+4,317$.


Given: $439+334+4,317$.

To do: To give a rough estimate $(by\ rounding\ off\ to\ nearest\ hundreds)$ and also a closer estimate $( by\ rounding\ off\ to nearest\ tens)$:

Solution:

Rounding off to hundreds:-

Rounding off $439$ to the nearest hundreds$=400$

Rounding off $334$ to the nearest hundreds$=300$

Rounding off $4,317$ to the nearest hundreds, we get $4,300$

On adding we get,

$400+300+4,300=5,000$

Rounding off to tens:-

Rounding off $439$ to the nearest tens$=440$

Rounding off $334$ to the nearest tens$=330$

And, rounding off $4,317$ to the nearest tens$=4,320$

On adding we get

$440+330+4,320=5,090$

When we round off the given terms to the nearest hundreds: $439+334+4,317=5000$.

When we round off the given terms to the nearest tens: $439+334+4,317=5,090$
