Solution

Step 1: Find the estimated outcome
The estimated outcome of $6, 125$ to the nearest thousand is $6000 .$
The estimated outcome of $231$ to the nearest hundred is $200 .$
So, $6000 + 200 = 6, 200$
Step 2: Find exact outcome and compare with estimated outcome
Exact outcome $= 6, 125 + 231 = 6, 356$
Clearly, $6, 356 > 6, 200$
Hence, Exact outcome is greater than the Estimated outcome
