Rounding 1,141 miles to the nearest hundred gives 1,100 miles, and rounding 6,094 miles to the nearest hundred gives 6,100 miles.
So, Wade purchased the motorcycle with 1,100 miles and sold it with 6,100 miles.
The difference between 6,100 and 1,100 is 5,000 miles, which is close to Wade's calculation of 4,953 miles. Therefore, it is reasonable to conclude that Wade's calculation is accurate.
