How do you do estimating sums?

When estimating sums, it is best to round to the nearest round number. If the last place on the right is less than 5, then round down. If the last place on the right is 5 or more, then round up. For example, 43+88. You would round the 43 down to 40 and the 88 up to 90. The estimated sum would 130.

Which is the only number which is equal to the sum of its digits?

Well, 1 is equal to 1. 9 is equal to 9. So any number from 0 to 9. I do not think this is what is meant by the question. If you mean any number with more than one digit. There is no such number. Because 11 sums to 2. 19 sums to 10. 21 sums to 3. 29 sums to 11. 111 sums 3. 119 sums to 11. The sums do not grow as fast the increase of digits.
