What is the utility of 'convergence rate' in numerical computing?
The convergence rate is a measure of how quickly the calculations become close to the value being calculated. Alternatively, how quickly the error becomes smaller.The convergence rate is a measure of how quickly the calculations become close to the value being calculated.

How does estimating the answer help you to know that you placed the decimal point in the sum correctly?
It doesn't really. If you are a competent user of arithmetic operations on decimal numbers then this will only mean additional calculations simply to confirm something which you would have done correctly anyway. And if you are not competent, then who is to say that your estimation is more likely to be correct?
What is the definition of number smart?
I think and look at problems from a logic and scientific point of view. I am able to perform complicated calculations since I have the ability to use numbers.
How has math changed since 1970?
Computers have become much more advanced. Most complicated calculations can be done in seconds, rather than hours or days.
How is rounding important in life?
It allows you to carry out calculations quickly, which can help validate the answer. In many cases an approximate answer which is available quickly is better than an exact answer which takes a long time to obtain.
