1.2 Estimation with Whole Numbers Estimate sums, differences, products, and quotients of whole numbers.

Remember! When you round, you look to the digit to the right. 5 or greater – round UP 4 or less – round DOWN

Clustering - estimating a sum when the addends are about the same.

1802 + 2182 + 1999 2000 + 2000 + 2000

Underestimate – an estimate that is less than the exact answer.

Overestimate – an estimate that is more than the exact answer.
