make an estimate by rounding to the nearest hundreds place. Rewrite the problem with your estimate and answer.

37.82 + 45.6

1 answer

To round each number to the nearest hundred:

  • 37.82 rounds to 0 (since it is less than 100),
  • 45.6 also rounds to 0 (since it is less than 100).

Now, we can rewrite the problem with the estimates:

Estimate:
0 + 0

Answer:
0

So, the estimated sum of 37.82 + 45.6, when rounding to the nearest hundreds place, is 0.
