To round each number to the nearest hundred, we will look at the tens digit:

  1. Friday (15,842)

    • The hundreds digit is 8 and the tens digit is 4. Since 4 is less than 5, we round down.
    • Rounded to the nearest hundred: 15,800

  2. Saturday (22,671)

    • The hundreds digit is 6 and the tens digit is 7. Since 7 is greater than 5, we round up.
    • Rounded to the nearest hundred: 22,700

  3. Sunday (19,439)

    • The hundreds digit is 4 and the tens digit is 3. Since 3 is less than 5, we round down.
    • Rounded to the nearest hundred: 19,400

Now, let's calculate the estimated total attendance:

  • Total = 15,800 (Friday) + 22,700 (Saturday) + 19,400 (Sunday)

Calculating the total:

  • 15,800 + 22,700 = 38,500
  • 38,500 + 19,400 = 57,900

Estimated Total attendance for all three days: 57,900
