Estimate Each Sum By Rounding It 17+49?

Answer Question

2 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    17 rounds to 20
    49 rounds to 50
    20 + 50 = 70

    You can get a better "estimate" by realizing that 20 is 3 higher than 17, and 50 is 1 higher than 49. This means your estimate is 3+1=4 higher than the actual value.
