To estimate the sum or difference by rounding, you need to round each number to the greatest place value and then perform the calculation. Let's estimate the difference 998,927 - 100,724 by rounding to the nearest hundred thousand.
Step 1: Round the numbers to the nearest hundred thousand:
998,927 rounded to the nearest hundred thousand is 1,000,000.
100,724 rounded to the nearest hundred thousand is 100,000.
Step 2: Perform the calculation using the rounded numbers:
1,000,000 - 100,000 = 900,000
So, the estimated difference is 900,000.
It's important to note that this method of estimation may not always give an exact answer, but it can provide a close approximation.
