A reasonable estimate of the sum of 78 and 119 is 197.
13,200
One estimate is 800 although there is really no need t estimate such a simple sum: it is 778.
46.78-18.55 and estimate each sum or difference = 28.23
Why do you need to ESTIMATE? The exact answer is easy enough to determine! It is 94.

Yes because 5+9 = 14

. 87.8. 17.3------------.105.1As can be seen by the above sum, 105.1 is reasonable.
The sum is 2.05 and you don;t need to estimate such a simple sum!

7.5 + 9.2 = 16.7So 16.7 is reasonable.===========================You should not have to perform the addition in order to decide whether an estimatewas reasonable. That defeats the whole purpose of the estimating process.Ignore the decimal parts of your two numbers, and you have (7 + 9). You don't needa calculator to know immediately that THAT sum is 16. So 16 is a good estimate forwhat you'll have when you glue the decimal bits back onto the whole numbers, andwhen you reassemble everything and get a sum of 16.7 , that's so near your estimatethat you can be pretty sure that you added correctly.
