Answer -
(a) 730 + 998
Round off to hundreds
730 rounds off to 700
998 rounds off to 1000
Hence, 730 + 998 = 700 + 1000 = 1700
(b) 796 – 314
Round off to hundreds
796 rounds off to 800
314 rounds off to 300
Hence, 796 – 314 = 800 – 300 = 500
(c) 12904 + 2888
Round off to thousands
12904 rounds off to 13000
2888 rounds off to 3000
Hence, 12904 + 2888 = 13000 + 3000 = 16000
(d) 28292 – 21496
Round off to thousands
28292 round off to 28000
21496 round off to 21000
Hence, 28292 – 21496 = 28000 – 21000 = 7000
Ten more such examples are
(i) 330 + 280 = 300 + 300 = 600
(ii) 3937 + 5990 = 4000 + 6000 = 10000
(iii) 6392 – 3772 = 6000 – 4000 = 2000
(iv) 5440 – 2972 = 5000 – 3000 = 2000
(v) 2175 + 1206 = 2000 + 1000 = 3000
(vi) 1110 – 1292 = 1000 – 1000 = 0
(vii) 910 + 575 = 900 + 600 = 1500
(viii) 6400 – 4900 = 6000 – 5000 = 1000
(ix) 3731 + 1300 = 4000 + 1000 = 5000
(x) 6485 – 4319 = 6000 – 4000 = 2000
