In general, numbers are not compatible or otherwise in isolation. They are compatible in the context of other numbers. Two (or more) numbers are compatible if their sum (or other combination) is a number which YOU find easy to work with. As you acquire more experience, you may find that more and more numbers become compatible.
88 is the sum of those two numbers.
17 and 4: sum is 21.
To estimate the sum of 17 and 75, you can use compatible numbers that are close to the original numbers. For example, you can round 17 to 20 and 75 to 80. Adding these rounded numbers gives you an estimated sum of 100. This estimation provides a quick approximation of the actual sum while simplifying the calculation.
Compatible numbers are pairs of numbers that are easy to compute with mentally, typically because they are rounded or simplified to make arithmetic calculations easier. For example, 50 and 20 are compatible numbers for estimating the sum of 48 and 19, as they round neatly to 50 and 20, making it simple to calculate that their sum is approximately 70. This concept is often used in estimation to quickly assess the reasonableness of an answer.
