Answer 1

To round the attendance numbers from the table, we can look at the digits in each number:

1. Game 1: 4,653 rounds to 4,700 (the digit in the tens place is 5 or more).
2. Game 2: 2,350 rounds to 2,400 (the digit in the tens place is 5 or more).
3. Game 3: 3,860 rounds to 3,900 (the digit in the tens place is 6).

Now we can create the equation using the rounded numbers:

4,700 + 2,400 + 3,900 =

Let's calculate the total:

• \(4,700 + 2,400 = 7,100\)
• \(7,100 + 3,900 = 11,000\)

So the complete equation is:

4,700 + 2,400 + 3,900 = 11,000.
