⁦Sometimes we do not need the exact number⁩. ⁦We say⁩ "⁦about 300 pupils⁩". ⁦This is an⁩ تقدير.

⁦One way⁩: ⁦drop the ones digit and write 0 in its place⁩. ⁦731 becomes 730⁩. ⁦To round to hundreds, drop the tens and ones and write zeros⁩: ⁦124 becomes 100⁩.

⁦Another way⁩: ⁦look at the number on the line and say which ten or hundred it is nearest to⁩. ⁦47 is closer to 50 than to 40⁩.

⁦To estimate a sum, simplify each number first, then add the easy numbers⁩. ⁦Use the way the question asks for⁩.
