Solution

We need to estimate 1398 - 526.
1398 > 526.

$∴$ We will round these numbers off to the nearest hundreds.

1398 can be rounded off to 1400.
526 can be rounded off to 500.

Estimated difference:
1400 - 500 = ₹900
The actual amount left with him = 1398 - 526 = ₹872
The difference between the estimated amount left with him, and the actual amount left with him = 900 - 872 = ₹28.
