Question

Estimate the following products.

d) $2,041\times 36$

Answer 1

Now,Round off the numbers to their highest places.

In $2,041$, the highest place is thousands and so it is rounded off to $2,000$.

In $36$, the highest place is tens and so it is rounded off to $40$

So, $$\begin{gathered} 2,000\times 40 \\ =80,000 \end{gathered}$$

Actual product is $73,476$.

So, actual product is close to the estimated product.
