First, we need to round each decimal to the nearest whole number.
- For 6.47, the closest whole number is **6**.
- For 0.53, the closest whole number is **1**.
Now, we subtract the estimated whole numbers:
\[
6 - 1 = 5
\]
So, the estimation of the difference is:
\[
6.47 - 0.53 \approx 5
\]
Final answer:
\[
(6 - 1 = 5)
\]
- For 6.47, the closest whole number is **6**.
- For 0.53, the closest whole number is **1**.
Now, we subtract the estimated whole numbers:
\[
6 - 1 = 5
\]
So, the estimation of the difference is:
\[
6.47 - 0.53 \approx 5
\]
Final answer:
\[
(6 - 1 = 5)
\]
