Answer
Estimate: $4,900,000$
Exact: $4,628,904$
Work Step by Step
We need to multiply:
$~~~6538$
$\times ~~\underline{108}$
First, we estimate by rounding:
$~~~~~~~~~7000$
$~~~~\times ~~\underline{700}$
$4,900,000$
Next, we find the exact answer:
$~~~~~~~~~7000$
$~~~~\times ~~\underline{700}$
$~~~~~~~52304$
$+\underline{4576600}$
$4,628,904$
We see that our estimate and exact answers are fairly similar.
