Exercise 2(b) page no: 17

1.Estimate the sum of each pair of numbers to the nearest ten :
(i) 67 and 44
(ii) 34 and 87
(iii) 23 and 66
(iv) 78 and 18
(v) 96 and 55

Solution:

(i) 67 to the nearest ten is 70

44 to the nearest ten is 40

Sum of these numbers = 70 + 40

= 110

∴Required sum = 110

(ii) 34 to the nearest ten is 30

87 to the nearest ten is 90

Sum of these numbers = 30 + 90

= 120

∴Required sum = 120

(iii) 23 to the nearest ten is 20

66 to the nearest ten is 70

Sum of these numbers = 20 + 70

= 90

∴Required sum = 90

(iv) 78 to the nearest ten is 80

18 to the nearest ten is 20

Sum of these numbers = 80 + 20

= 100

∴Required sum = 100

(v) 96 to the nearest ten is 100

55 to the nearest ten is 60

Sum of these numbers = 100 + 60

= 160

∴Required sum = 160

2.Estimate the sum of each pair of numbers to the nearest hundred:
(i) 336 and 782
(ii) 546 and 342
(iii) 270 and 495

(v) 4230 and 2410

Solution:

(i) 336 to the nearest hundred is 300 and 782 to the nearest hundred is 800

Sum of these numbers = (300 + 800)

= 1100

∴Required sum = 1100

(ii) 546 to the nearest hundred is 500 and 342 to the nearest hundred is 300

Sum of these numbers = (500 + 300)

= 800

∴Required sum = 800

(iii) 270 to the nearest hundred is 300 and 495 to the nearest hundred is 500

Sum of these numbers = (300 + 500)

(iv) 4280 to the nearest hundred is 4300 and 5295 to the nearest hundred is 5300

Sum of these numbers = (4300 + 5300)

= 9600

∴Required sum = 9600

(v) 4230 to the nearest hundred is 4200 and 2410 to the nearest hundred is 2400

Sum of these numbers = (4200 + 2400)

∴Required difference = (80 – 30)

= 50

(ii) 96 to the nearest ten is 100 and 36 to the nearest ten is 40

∴Required difference = (100 – 40)

= 60

(iii) 508 to the nearest ten is 510 and 248 to the nearest ten is 250

Solution:

(i) 45974 to the nearest thousand = 46000

38766 to the nearest thousand = 39000

∴Required difference = (46000 – 39000)

= 7000

(ii) 76003 to the nearest thousand = 76000

48399 to the nearest thousand = 48000
