An underestimate occurs when a calculated value is lower than the actual value. When rounding factors before estimating, if numbers are rounded down instead of to the nearest value, it can lead to underestimation. This is because rounding down tends to make the numbers smaller, resulting in a lower estimated value than if rounding had been done more accurately.
Rounding factors can lead to underestimates or overestimates: the outcome depends on the rounding.

Estimate the sum of 586 and 317 by rounding numbers to the nearest hundred before adding?
900
Why is estimating before you subtract a good idea?
i think it is a good idea because it gets you more closer to getting the exact number
Would you rather find all the factors of a number or find all the prime factors of a number?
Once all the prime factors of a number have been found, the number of factors the number has and what they are can be found. I'd be finding the prime factors first before finding all the factors of a number, so I'd rather find all the prime factors as it means I can stop before I have to do more work in finding all the factors.
What is the product of 612 and 490 by rounding both numbers to the nearest hundred before multiplying?
600 x 500 = 300000 612 x 490 = 299880
What are all lists of the factors of a composite number?
One needs the composite number before he can find its factors. Thus the solution I shall give is ∞.
How does an under estimation relate to rounding factors before estimating?

Is all factors rounded up before estimating an underestimate?
Probably not. It depends on whether the word "factor" is used in the sense of "components that affect" or "numbers which divide into".
Could you explain why estimating before you divide 624 by 6 helps you place the first digit in the quotient?
by rounding 624 down to 600, you know that 600 divided by 6 is 100, so the first digit will probably be a 1
Do males and females have different abilities estimating an object's size?
There is no scientific evidence to suggest that males and females have inherently different abilities when estimating an object's size. Any perceived differences in estimating object size are more likely due to individual factors such as experience, spatial awareness, and cognitive processing rather than gender.
How long before a baby is born when 1 2 cm dilated 80 effaced and at 1 station?
It just depends on the person. There are so many factors to consider when estimating birthing times. Sorry.
How can estimating be helpful before finding the actual product?
It is helpful because when you are finished estimating (for example: multpliying, diving, adding or subtracting) it's like checking your work that's why it can be helpful to estimate before finding the actual product.
What is the difference between rounding and estimating in math?
Rounding is when you make the number go up by 1 when it is 5 or more in a one digit number. When it is a two digit number, the number in the ones place has to be 5 or more to round up which means to make the number go up. When a number in the ones place is less than 5, you have to make the number goes down. For example, if you have the number 59, you would round up and it would be 60 or if you had the number 52, you would go down and the number would be 50. Rounding is also done after you solve an equation. For example, when you have an equation like 25+61, you would first have to solve the equation normally and then you round the answer. 25+61=86. 86 is rounded to 90 and that is your answer for an equation that is needed to be rounded. Estimating is when you have an equation and you round up or down before you solve the equation.
How does estimating before you divide 624 divided by 6 help you place the first digit in the quotient?

How can estimating be helpful before finding the actual product in mulpliying?
Early estimation can help give an indication of the answer.
How can estimating be helpful before finding an actual product?
I just read the answer and it doesn't help what so ever
Explain why estimating before you divide 624 by 6 helps you place the first digit in the quotient?
b/c by rounding 624 down to 600, you know that 600 divided by 6 is 100, so the first digit will probably be a 1
